EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "El Monte federal subsistence homesteads. Two-bedroom house, three in family. Girl eleven. Father truck driver. Earns ninety-five dollars monthly, pays fifteen dollars and twenty cents rent to apply on purchase," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1936. The image is part of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) collection, which documented the effects of the Great Depression on rural communities in the United States. The photograph depicts a simple, rustic two-bedroom house in El Monte, California, where a family of three resides. The father, a truck driver, earns a monthly income of ninety-five dollars, and pays fifteen dollars and twenty cents in rent towards the eventual purchase of the property. The house, surrounded by timberland and farmland, is a symbol of the subsistence homesteads established by the U.S. government to provide temporary relief to families struggling during the Great Depression. Lange, a pioneer in documentary photography, captured the essence of rural life during this period of economic hardship. Her image is a poignant reminder of the resilience and determination of families to maintain a sense of home and stability amidst challenging circumstances. The photograph is also a testament to the importance of government programs in providing essential support during times of crisis. The image is a nitrate negative, and is part of the Dorothea Lange Collection in the Library of Congress. It was taken during Lange's tenure with the FSA and later the Office of War Information (OWI). Lange's work during this period is considered a significant contribution to the genre of regionalism and the broader documentary tradition in American photography.
