EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "REAL ESTATE OFFICE, 1938" takes us back in time to a small town in the heart of America during the Great Depression. The image showcases a real estate and loan office located in Marysville, Ohio. Through the lens of renowned photographer Ben Shahn, we are transported to an era where hope and resilience were essential for survival. The exterior of the building stands as a testament to this period's architectural charm with its classic storefront window and prominent sign. A lone man can be seen standing on the sidewalk outside, perhaps contemplating his dreams or seeking financial assistance amidst uncertain times. The presence of a barber shop next door serves as a reminder that even during hardship, people still sought out moments of normalcy and self-care. As we delve into this photograph further, it becomes evident that this image is not just about bricks and mortar; it symbolizes more profound themes such as community support and perseverance. It represents how individuals came together to navigate through economic adversity by utilizing resources like mortgages provided by these offices. "REAL ESTATE OFFICE, 1938" captures both the challenges faced by Americans during one of their darkest periods but also highlights their determination to rebuild their lives. This print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to reflect upon our history while appreciating how far we have come since then.
