EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph captured by Marion Post Wolcott, we are transported back in time to the picturesque countryside of Tennessee in the 1940s. Against a backdrop of rolling hills and a meandering river, we witness an intimate moment that encapsulates the essence of American agriculture.

This image serves as a testament to their unwavering commitment to sustenance and survival. Wolcott's use of color photography adds depth and vibrancy to this snapshot in history.

It represents resilience, resourcefulness, and unity among communities working together towards a common goal – providing sustenance for their families and nation.
