EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "San Fernando federal subsistence homesteads," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1936. The image depicts forty occupied homes nestled amidst the arid landscape of California, each with nearly an acre of land. The average yearly income for the residents of these homes was a modest eight hundred dollars. During the Great Depression, the United States government, through programs such as the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and the Resettlement Administration, sought to provide relief to struggling farmers and rural families. One such initiative was the creation of subsistence homesteads, which offered affordable housing and agricultural assistance to those in need. The image captures the simple, yet resilient spirit of the homesteaders, as they make the best of their circumstances. The wooden houses, with their weathered exteriors, stand proudly against the backdrop of the barren land. The residents have made the most of their limited resources, with gardens and small timber structures dotting the landscape. The photograph, taken during the era of the New Deal, is a poignant reminder of the economic hardships faced by many Americans during the Great Depression. It also serves as a testament to the human spirit and the resilience of those who persevered through difficult times. Dorothea Lange, a pioneering figure in documentary photography, captured this image as part of her work for the FSA and the Office of War Information (OWI). The negative, a nitrate film, is now housed in the Library of Congress, a national treasure that preserves the heritage and history of the United States.
