EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captured by Dorothea Lange in 1939 depicts a white sharecropper and wage laborer diligently priming tobacco early in the morning. The image is set against the backdrop of Granville County, North Carolina, during the Great Depression era. Lange's lens transports us to a rural landscape where this hardworking man labors alongside his mule, symbolizing the enduring bond between humans and animals in agriculture. The worn expressions on their faces speak volumes about the hardships they face daily. The photo serves as a poignant reminder of the economic struggles that plagued America during this time. It reflects Lange's commitment to documenting social issues through her photography for various government agencies such as Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI). Through her lens, Lange captures not only an individual but also represents countless others who were trapped in poverty due to economic recession. This image stands as a testament to their resilience amidst adversity. Preserved within the archives of Library of Congress, this photograph continues to evoke emotions even after decades have passed. It showcases Lange's skillful composition and ability to convey profound stories through visual imagery. As we gaze upon this historic print, it prompts us to reflect on our nation's agricultural heritage while reminding us of those who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes - often forgotten heroes whose dedication sustained our country during challenging times.
