EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Resettled child of Bosque Farms, New Mexico. She herds cows for neighboring families for five cents per day," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The image depicts a young girl, dressed in tattered clothes, standing in the countryside with a determined expression on her face as she herds a group of cows. The girl, who appears to be in her early teens, is a displaced person, likely forced from her home due to economic hardships and displacement caused by the Depression. The photograph was taken during Lange's tenure with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency established to provide relief to rural communities affected by the Depression. Lange's work for the FSA is renowned for its powerful and poignant depictions of the human condition during this difficult period in American history. The girl in the photograph is shown in a full-length shot, her hands on the hips of her overalls, with a look of determination and resilience in her eyes. She is a farm laborer, a farmhand, and a cowherd, working long hours for meager wages to help support her family. The image is a stark reminder of the exploitation and economic hardships faced by many Americans during this time. The photograph is a valuable historical artifact, capturing a moment in time that speaks to the resilience and determination of the human spirit in the face of adversity. It is a poignant reminder of the importance of social safety nets and the need to address the root causes of poverty and economic instability. The image is a testament to the power of photography to capture and preserve history and to inspire reflection and action.
