EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Rogers, Arkansas. Small town," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1938. The image offers a glimpse into the everyday life of a small town in the United States during the 1930s, a time marked by the Great Depression and economic hardship. The photograph depicts a quiet, unassuming main street lined with various shops and businesses. A car with the AC Cars Ltd. logo can be seen parked in front of a butcher shop, where a man in bib overalls and a cigar clenched between his teeth stands behind the counter. Another man, dressed in denim and wearing a fedora, walks along the sidewalk, carrying a bundle of clothes. A drugstore and a corner shop are also visible in the background. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and determination of the American people during a time of great economic adversity. The agricultural workers and farm hands, dressed in their practical work clothes, are a reminder of the importance of the agricultural industry in rural communities. The image is a valuable historical record of a bygone era and a reminder of the heritage and traditions that continue to shape America's small towns. The photograph was developed, printed, and enlarged at Masingill Studio, and is part of the Dorothea Lange Collection at the Library of Congress. Lange, a pioneering figure in documentary photography, captured over 16,000 images for the Farm Security Administration during the 1930s, providing a visual record of the effects of the Great Depression on rural America.
