EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Nebraska Farmer Come to Pick Peas. Near Calipatria, California," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The image portrays a weary farmer, dressed in bib overalls and a cowboy hat, as he pauses to take a moment's rest during the arduous task of pea picking. The location of the image is Calipatria, California, a far cry from the farmer's native Nebraska. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the forced displacement and migration that occurred during this period of economic hardship. The farmer, like many others, was likely driven from his home by drought, debt, or unemployment, and was forced to seek work in agricultural labor camps across the country. The image captures the stark reality of the times, with the farmer's worn clothing and the barren landscape in the background. The photograph was taken during Lange's tenure with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency that aimed to provide relief to rural communities affected by the Depression. Lange's work for the FSA, which included over 16,000 photographs, is considered a seminal contribution to the documentation of the Great Depression and the American experience during that era. The image also serves as a reminder of the enduring fashion of bib overalls and the iconic status of the cowboy hat in American culture. The photograph's timeless quality and powerful storytelling ability continue to captivate audiences today, making it a valuable addition to the heritage of American photography.
