EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "MISSOURI: FARM SALE, 1939" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. The image captures the essence of rural life during the Great Depression era, showcasing an auction at a farm in Pettis County, Missouri. In this snapshot frozen in time by photographer Arthur Rothstein in November 1939, we witness a horse being paraded before prospective buyers. The horse stands tall and proud as it is showcased amidst a backdrop of eager onlookers. This scene represents the resilience and determination of farmers during challenging times. The photograph offers a glimpse into daily life on farms during this period marked by economic hardship and foreclosure. It serves as a reminder of the impact that the New Deal policies had on rural communities across America. Through initiatives like the Farm Security Administration (FSA), efforts were made to support struggling farmers and revive agricultural sectors. Rothstein's lens beautifully captures not only the visual elements but also conveys emotions tied to hope for better days ahead. The composition highlights both people's connection with animals and their reliance on them for livelihoods. As we delve into this historical image, we are transported back to an early chapter in American history where hardworking individuals faced adversity head-on while striving for brighter futures against all odds.
