EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, showcases the Stephen brothers - Joe, Jim, Eugene, and Fred - from Nebraska. These hardworking siblings were known for their exceptional farming skills and dedication to their craft. Clad in classic denim bib overalls and hats that shield them from the sun's rays, they stand proudly beside their newly acquired combine harvester. The significance of this image lies not only in its portrayal of a close-knit family but also in its representation of American agriculture during the Great Depression era. The Stephen brothers' farm machinery was purchased through a loan provided by the Farm Security Administration (FSA), highlighting the government's efforts to support struggling farmers during this challenging time. Captured against the picturesque backdrop of Nyssa Heights district in Malheur County, Oregon, Lange's photograph immortalizes these hardworking men as symbols of resilience amidst economic hardship. Their determined expressions speak volumes about their commitment to providing for their families and contributing to the country's agricultural industry. Dorothea Lange's masterful composition captures both the individuality of each brother and their collective strength as a unit. This group portrait serves as a testament to America's rich farming heritage while shedding light on important socio-economic aspects such as rural life, labor conditions, and governmental assistance programs that shaped our nation during this pivotal period in history.
