Tulare County, Farm Security Administration (FSA) camp. Migrant mother and child at doorway of steel shelter
#TulareCounty #theGreatDepression #theUnitedStates #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange
![The image is a black-and-white photograph depicting two individuals, likely a mother and child, standing in the doorway of a steel shelter. The adult appears to be holding or guiding the younger individual closely with one arm around their shoulders. Both are dressed modestly; the woman wears a sleeveless patterned dress while the young girl has on a simple pinkish-toned garment.
The setting seems impoverished, suggested by the simplicity and starkness of the structure they stand in front of, which appears to be made from steel sheets or corrugated metal. The interior space beyond is not clearly visible but looks quite sparse. A pair of shoes can be seen resting on a ledge near the doorway, indicating that it might have been intended for more comfortable footwear than bare feet.
The overall mood conveyed by this image is one of austerity and hardship, reflective of conditions experienced during times of significant economic distress such as the Great Depression in the United States or similar periods elsewhere. The context provided suggests these individuals could be migrant workers seeking better opportunities away from their home region due to agricultural cycles or wartime-related displacement.

![The image is a black and white photograph featuring an elderly man standing outdoors. He appears to be wearing work attire, including a long-sleeve button-up shirt with pockets on the chest area, likely made of durable material suitable for manual labor or farming activities. The man has his hands placed casually in what seems like trouser pockets, suggesting relaxation amidst a break from tasks.
He is donning a flat cap typically associated with rural settings and work environments that may be subject to sun exposure. His expression is neutral yet contemplative as he gazes off into the distance, not directly engaging or looking at the camera lens.
The background is quite minimalistic but appears spacious, indicative of an open field or agricultural landscape commonly found in farming communities during early mid-20th century America. A vehicle and possibly some farm structures can be faintly discerned in the backdrop under a clear sky with no visible clouds.
Intriguingly, there's handwritten text at the top edge that reads "3-HW81," which could potentially refer to a file number or code related to this photo. The photograph carries historical significance as it is linked to Mineral King Farm Association and one of its directors in Tulare County, California during 1942, a time when farming communities were significantly impacted by government policies aimed at resettling displaced individuals.

Brawley, Imperial Valley. In Farm Security Administration (FSA) migratory labor camp. Family father, mother and eleven children originally from Mangrum, Oklahoma. See 19201
#Brawley #ImperialValley #Oklahoma #America #American #DorotheaLanges #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange
![The image is a black and white photograph depicting a group of eleven individuals, presumably a family with their children. They are standing in front of what appears to be temporary shelter or tent structure, suggesting they may reside temporarily at this location for agricultural work as indicated by the Farm Security Administration (FSA) migratory labor camp label on it.
The adults and older children appear variedly dressed; some wear overalls while others sport shirts with more casual patterns. The clothing suggests practicality suited to farm or labor-intensive occupations, typical of rural working-class families during that time period in America's agricultural heartland.
Children are seen wearing dresses and trousers, reflecting the gendered norms for dress codes at such times. There is a mix of colors from their garments ranging from darker tones like black and navy blue to lighter shades including white with patterned designs indicating modesty typical of mid-20th century fashion among rural American families.
The group's expressions range from neutral poses, showing the sternness associated with laborious work environments, through smiling faces suggesting familiarity or comfort in their living conditions.

![The image is a black and white photograph showing an outdoor scene with two subjects. In the foreground, there's a woman seated on what appears to be a wooden crate or stool in front of a large canvas tent that has some writing on it but is not fully legible due to the angle and distance.
She seems contemplative or possibly distressed, as she holds her arm near her face with her hand partially covering her mouth. She wears a dress from mid-thigh down to above the knees, and closed-toe shoes which are indicative of practical footwear suited for laborious activities.
Beside her on the ground is a young child sitting in what looks like an open cardboard box or similar container. The child's posture suggests they may be resting or simply observing their surroundings. Both subjects appear weary but there’s no direct interaction between them, giving off a sense of solitude despite being close to each other.
The setting seems arid and dusty with sparse vegetation indicative of desert conditions under bright sunlight. No distinct geographical features are visible apart from the sky which is clear without clouds indicating it might be midday or early afternoon due to the harshness of shadows cast on the ground by both subjects, suggesting a high sun position typical for regions like California.

![The image is a black and white photograph of a rural family standing on the porch of their wooden house. There are six people visible, including two adults (a man holding an infant in his arms) and four children who appear to be looking out onto the street or towards something outside the frame.
The adult male has short hair and wears overalls with suspenders. He is carrying a small child on his left arm while standing next to another young child on what looks like wooden planks that could serve as steps leading up to the porch of their home.
One woman stands by him, dressed in a light-colored blouse with dark sleeves, possibly suggesting she's taking care of her children. She has short hair and wears glasses which are resting on top of her head rather than hanging around her neck or face level like typically seen today.
The four children vary between ages: one appears to be an infant being held by the man; another is a little older boy standing in front of what looks like chicken coop, possibly indicating their rural lifestyle and connection with farm life. The other two are younger boys who look towards whatever has captured their attention outside this frame – perhaps something out on the street or field that's beyond our view.

Farm Security Administration - Office of War Information photograph collection (Library of Congress)
![The image is a black and white photo, likely taken in the mid-1900s given its style. It shows an older woman with contemplative expression on her face as she rests her chin upon one hand. She appears to be sitting close to another person who's partly visible behind her. The setting seems casual or domestic, suggested by what looks like a checkered shirt the partially seen individual is wearing and perhaps household items in the background.
The photograph belongs to the Farm Security Administration - Office of War Information (FSA-OWI) Photograph Collection held at the Library of Congress. This collection often depicted everyday life during times such as wars or depressions, aiming for an authentic portrayal rather than romanticized one. It's a significant part of American social history photography and is known for its journalistic approach to capturing human conditions and environments.
Unfortunately, without more context about this particular image in the FSA-OWI collection, it would be difficult to ascertain who she might have been or what events may have led up to that moment captured by Dorothea Lange. Lange was a renowned photographer whose work often highlighted social issues like poverty and unemployment during the Great Depression.
