EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Russell Lee in 1940, we are transported to the Pie Town Fair in New Mexico. The image captures a homesteader and his children enjoying a delightful barbecue meal amidst the lively atmosphere of the fair. The scene exudes a sense of simplicity and joy as the family gathers around a makeshift outdoor table, their faces beaming with happiness. The father, dressed in classic bib overalls, embodies hard work and resilience - qualities synonymous with American agricultural workers during that era. As they savor their food under the open sky, surrounded by fellow fairgoers, it is evident that this moment represents more than just a meal. It symbolizes community spirit and celebration of rural life - an important aspect of American culture at that time. Russell Lee's lens beautifully captures not only the people but also the essence of Pie Town itself. This small town nestled within New Mexico's countryside was known for its pie baking contests and fairs which brought together locals from farmlands near and far. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of simpler times when families found solace in each other's company while relishing delicious barbecued treats at local fairs. It encapsulates an era where hardworking individuals like this homesteader took pride in providing for their loved ones against all odds.
