EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Ben Shahn in August 1938, we are transported back to Columbus, Ohio. The image showcases a man standing at the entrance of a bustling lunchroom, capturing an essence of daily life during that era. The man exudes a sense of confidence as he stands tall in his well-tailored suit. His presence adds an air of importance to the scene, suggesting that this lunchroom holds significance within the community. Behind him, through the large glass window adorned with a sign advertising food, we catch glimpses of people inside enjoying their meals. The exterior of the lunchroom reflects its early 20th-century origins with its classic architecture and ornate details. It serves as a reminder of how businesses were established during that time period and their role in providing sustenance for local residents. Ben Shahn's keen eye captures not only the physical elements but also tells us about American society at large during this period. This photograph was taken under the Farm Security Administration (FSA), which aimed to document rural poverty and promote government programs supporting farmers affected by economic depression. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into history - it encapsulates both everyday life in Columbus and highlights societal efforts to address economic challenges faced by Americans during that time.
