EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "TENNESSEE: COTTON GIN, 1936" takes us back in time to the heart of rural America. The image showcases three remarkable sisters, Hettie, Martha, and Louisa Walker, as they diligently work together ginning cotton on their farm in Gatlinburg, Sevier County. Photographed by Edouard E. Exline on May 21,1936, this snapshot beautifully captures a slice of early American life in Appalachia. The sisters are seated outside the cotton gin machine against the backdrop of the Great Smoky Mountains. Their expressions reveal both determination and resilience as they engage in this daily chore that was crucial for their livelihood. The simplicity of their attire reflects the era's modest fashion while emphasizing their hardworking nature. This photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of these strong-willed women who played an integral role in sustaining their family's farm. As we admire this historical image from Granger Art on Demand's collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also recognize the significance it holds within our nation's agricultural history. It serves as a reminder of the dedication and perseverance exhibited by countless farmers across Southeast Tennessee during that time.
