EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures the harsh reality of life during the Great Depression in 1936. The image, titled "Migrant Family" showcases a destitute and impoverished family of nine on a New Mexico highway. They are seen preparing to sell their belongings in order to buy food, highlighting the desperate measures they must take to survive. The composition portrays a mother and her eight children, including an adolescent boy named Linus Pauling. Their worn-out clothing and tired expressions reflect the hardships they endure as part of the working class during this tumultuous era. The family stands beside their pick-up truck and trailer parked on a dirt road, symbolizing their transient lifestyle as migrant workers searching for employment opportunities. Dorothea Lange's photograph is not only visually striking but also serves as a poignant reminder of the immense suffering experienced by countless families across America at that time. Through her lens, she captures both the resilience and vulnerability of these individuals who were forced into homelessness due to economic circumstances beyond their control. This print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to reflect upon our history and empathize with those who faced unimaginable challenges during one of America's darkest periods. It serves as a testament to human strength amidst adversity while urging us never to forget those who have struggled before us.
