EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Farmhouse, 1937" takes us back in time to a humble living room in Williams County, North Dakota. The image beautifully captures the essence of early American farmhouse life during the Great Depression era. In this intimate setting, we see a cozy space adorned with simple yet meaningful elements. A wooden rocking chair sits by the window, inviting you to take a moment and gaze out at the vast West landscape beyond. A guitar rests against the wall, perhaps waiting for its owner to strum melodies that bring solace amidst challenging times. The focal point of this room is undoubtedly the phonograph standing proudly on a speaker stand. It serves as both entertainment and escape from daily struggles - spinning records that transport listeners into another world through music's power. Photographer Russell Lee masterfully freezes this moment in October 1937, capturing not just an interior but also an atmosphere filled with resilience and hope. This image represents more than just a living room; it symbolizes the spirit of perseverance embodied by those who weathered economic hardships during this transformative period in American history. As we observe this photograph today, let us reflect on our own lives and appreciate how far we have come since then while honoring those who came before us – their stories etched within these walls forever captured by Russell Lee's lens.
