Capturing the Essence of Ohio's Past - A Glimpse into Newark's Drugstore, 1938
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time with this print by Ben Shahn, titled "OHIO: DRUGSTORE, 1938". Transported to a small town in Newark, Ohio during the Great Depression era, we find ourselves standing outside a quaint drugstore. The sign proudly displays its name and location, symbolizing hope and resilience amidst challenging times. Shahn skillfully captures the essence of early American life through his lens. The image showcases men gathered outside the drugstore, perhaps engaging in conversations about local news or seeking solace from their daily struggles. Their presence reflects the camaraderie that often emerged within communities during this period. This photograph is not merely an artistic representation but also serves as a historical document. It falls under the Farm Security Administration (FSA) project initiated by President Roosevelt's New Deal program. Through these visual records, Shahn aimed to shed light on America's social landscape and offer support for those affected by economic hardships. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how far our society has come since then. Yet it also encourages us to reflect on our roots and appreciate the progress made over decades. This print holds immense value as it allows us to connect with our past while honoring those who persevered through adversity.
