EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Cotton, San Joaquin Valley, California, 1936," captures the essence of the Great Depression era in America, as depicted through the lens of renowned photographer Dorothea Lange. The image portrays a scene from the cotton fields of the San Joaquin Valley in California, where farm laborers toil under the scorching sun, their faces etched with the weight of hard labor and the struggle for survival. The photograph features a female cotton picker, her back bent and hands calloused, as she carefully places cotton bolls into a large field sack. Her worn dress and bare feet speak to the meager resources available to her, while the cotton sacks and bolls in the foreground and the endless expanse of cotton fields in the background serve as a stark reminder of the economic hardships of the time. Lange, a pioneering figure in documentary photography, captured this image as part of her work with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency established to provide relief to rural areas affected by the Great Depression. The photograph is a poignant testament to the resilience and determination of the American people during a time of great economic hardship, and a powerful reminder of the importance of agricultural labor in shaping the country's heritage. This photograph, with its rich historical context and timeless imagery, is an invaluable addition to the Library of Congress's collection and a testament to Lange's enduring legacy as a documentarian of American life.
