The End of an Era - Abandoned Model T Along Highway 99, Oregon, 1939
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant photograph captured by Dorothea Lange in the midst of the Great Depression, we witness a symbol of progress left behind. The image showcases a desolate open field along Highway 99, North of Eugene, where a once beloved Ford Model T car now rests forgotten. As America grappled with economic turmoil and rural communities faced immense challenges during this era, Lange's lens captures the essence of hardship and change. The abandoned vehicle stands as a testament to the shifting tides that swept across the country during this tumultuous time. The dilapidated Model T becomes more than just an automobile; it represents dashed dreams and lost opportunities. Its rusted frame tells stories of families forced to leave their farms in search of work or survival. It speaks volumes about the resilience and determination required to navigate through such challenging times. Lange's masterful composition invites viewers to reflect on both personal struggles and broader societal issues. Through her lens, she immortalizes not only a single car but also an entire generation caught in the throes of economic recession. This photograph serves as a reminder that history is not confined within textbooks but can be found in everyday objects left behind on deserted roadsides. It prompts us to contemplate our own relationship with progress and how it shapes our lives even today.
