EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "VIRGINIA: FIDDLER, 1934" takes us back to a bygone era of American entertainment. In the frame, we see Davy Crockett Ward, a talented fiddler from the Bog Trotters Band, captured in his element by photographer Alan Lomax. The year is 1934, and Galax, Virginia serves as the backdrop for this remarkable portrait. Ward sits comfortably on a chair with his trusty fiddle resting against his shoulder. His denim overalls and neatly trimmed mustache give him an air of rugged charm. As he holds the bow delicately above the strings, one can almost hear the enchanting melodies that emanate from his instrument. This image offers a glimpse into early Appalachian culture and showcases the profound influence of music in this region's history. Ward's passion for playing shines through as he immerses himself in each note produced by his skilled fingers. The Granger Collection has preserved this moment frozen in time, allowing us to appreciate not only Ward's talent but also Lomax's ability to capture raw emotion through photography. This print stands as a testament to both artists' dedication to preserving cultural heritage. Whether you are an admirer of American history or simply captivated by musical artistry, this print is sure to transport you back to an era where fiddles were king and musicians like Davy Crockett Ward reigned supreme on stage.
