EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures the essence of moving day in the turpentine pine forest country of Northern Florida during the year 1936. Taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange, this image is a poignant reminder of the struggles faced by migrant workers during the Great Depression era in America.
In this photo, we see a family preparing to leave their home, with children helping to pack up their belongings onto a horse-drawn carriage. The bedclothes are neatly folded on top of mattresses, cookware is packed away in pots, and personal possessions are carefully gathered for the journey ahead.
The expression on the faces of these migrants tells a story of hardship and resilience as they face an uncertain future. Dorothea Lange's keen eye for capturing raw emotion shines through in this snapshot of American history.
As part of her work for the Farm Security Administration, Lange documented the economic struggles faced by families across America during this tumultuous time. Her photographs serve as important historical records that shed light on the human impact of poverty and displacement.
This print serves as a reminder of our shared history and challenges us to reflect on how far we have come since those difficult days.
