Highway Corner, Reedsville, West Virginia, 1935 - A Glimpse into America's Great Depression
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph by Walker Evans transports us back to the heart of the Great Depression in 1930s America. The image captures a desolate highway corner in Reedsville, West Virginia, where economic hardship is palpable. Evans' lens skillfully frames the scene; an old gas station stands as a solemn sentinel against the backdrop of rural countryside. Its worn-out sign serves as a stark reminder of better times gone by. A weathered telephone box nearby adds to the sense of isolation and longing for connection during these challenging years. The composition evokes a profound sense of nostalgia and melancholy. It symbolizes not only an era marked by economic recession but also reflects on the resilience and fortitude that defined American society during this time. As we gaze upon this still image from our nation's history, it becomes clear that Evans masterfully captured more than just bricks and mortar; he immortalized an entire generation's struggle for survival. This photograph now resides within the Congressional Library at the Library of Congress – a testament to its significance as both art and historical documentation. Walker Evans' work continues to resonate with viewers today, reminding us never to forget our past or take for granted how far we have come since those difficult days.
