EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Dorothea Lange in 1939, we are transported to the stunning Bear Valley in Adams County, Idaho. The image captures a Basque sheep herder leading a pack train down from their summer camp, showcasing the timeless connection between man and animal. As the Basque sheep herder guides his trusty horses through the rugged countryside, it is evident that this journey is no easy feat. The trip up to their summer camp takes an astonishing thirty-five days, while coming back down requires twenty days of careful navigation through fields and farmland. Lange's composition beautifully encapsulates both the physicality of this laborious task and the resilience of these hardworking men. With his horse riding equipment at hand and a bag slung over his shoulder, this herder embodies dedication to his profession amidst challenging times. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of America's Great Depression era when economic hardships were widespread. Through Lange's lens, we witness not only an individual fulfilling his occupation but also glimpse into regionalism and heritage art that define American history. Preserved within the archives of the Library of Congress' Farm Security Administration collection, this image stands as a testament to Dorothea Lange's remarkable ability to capture moments that transcend time. It invites us to reflect on our own relationship with nature and appreciate those who have dedicated themselves to preserving traditions against all odds.
