EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph by Carl Mydans, taken in August 1936, transports us back to an era marked by both hardship and hope - the Great Depression. In this snapshot of rural life, we witness a farmer's family finding solace amidst economic turmoil through the simple joys of camping. Set against the backdrop of Vermont's picturesque countryside, this image captures the essence of summer recreation for working-class families during that time. The worn-out car parked nearby serves as their humble shelter while they enjoy moments together under the open sky. A mother can be seen tending to her children with love and care, embodying strength despite challenging circumstances. Nearby, a clothesline adorned with laundry flutters gently in the breeze - evidence that even amidst leisurely activities, daily chores remain essential.
