EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "VIRGINIA: WOMAN, 1935" takes us back to a significant era in American history. The portrait showcases a woman seated on a chair in the picturesque Shenandoah National Park, Virginia. Taken by renowned photographer Arthur Rothstein in October 1935, this image captures the essence of early 20th-century life in the Southeast. The woman's expression is both serene and contemplative, as if she carries the weight of her surroundings on her shoulders. Her dress reflects the fashion trends of that time while also symbolizing resilience amidst challenging circumstances. In the background, stacks of firewood remind us of an era marked by economic hardship - the Great Depression. Rothstein's lens skillfully encapsulates not only an individual but also an entire community grappling with adversity. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how people found solace and strength within nature during difficult times. Preserved by Library of Congress' Granger Art on Demand collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into Virginia's past through one woman's eyes. It invites us to reflect upon our own history and appreciate those who came before us.
