EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures the harsh realities of life during the Great Depression in America. Taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange, the image showcases a squatter camp entering potato town in Malin, Klamath County, Oregon in 1939. In this haunting still image, we witness a shantytown nestled amidst the rustic countryside. The camp is comprised of makeshift tents and humble dwellings that serve as temporary homes for those displaced by economic hardship. Lange's lens exposes the poverty-stricken conditions endured by these marginalized individuals seeking refuge from their shattered lives. The photo evokes a sense of desolation and despair brought about by forced migration and displacement during one of America's darkest periods. It serves as a poignant reminder of the profound impact that economic recession had on rural communities across the country. Dorothea Lange was an influential documentary photographer who captured images that not only documented history but also stirred public consciousness. Her work for government agencies such as Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI) shed light on social issues like poverty and inequality. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to an era marked by struggle and resilience. It stands as a testament to Lange's ability to capture human dignity even amidst dire circumstances, making it an enduring piece of heritage art preserved within the Library of Congress' vast collection.
