EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the harsh reality of life for a young girl in a migrant camp during the Great Depression. Taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in November 1936, it showcases the daughter of a Tennessee coal miner who has been uprooted from her home to live in the American River Camp near Sacramento, California. Seated inside a humble tent, this young girl's face tells a story of despair and disappointment. Her eyes reflect the hardships endured by her family as they struggle to make ends meet amidst poverty and uncertainty. The worn-out interior of their temporary dwelling serves as a stark reminder of their working-class status. Lange's powerful composition not only exposes the dire living conditions faced by migrant workers but also sheds light on the wider social issues prevalent during that era. This photograph is part of Lange's extensive documentation commissioned by the Farm Security Administration (FSA) under President Roosevelt's New Deal program. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back to an early 20th-century America where economic turmoil reigned supreme. It serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece, capturing one individual's experience within a larger narrative of resilience and survival. Granger Art on Demand presents this print from its collection with utmost respect for its subject matter and historical significance.
