![The image is a black and white photograph depicting a rural landscape with several single-family homes. These houses appear to be on modest, tree-lined streets typical of suburban or semi-rural areas in the early 20th century, based on their architecture which includes pitched roofs and what looks like gabled dormer windows. The structures are surrounded by well-maintained lawns bordered with a variety of shrubs and young trees.
The scene is set under an open sky that appears mostly clear with no visible clouds or signs of precipitation. In the foreground, there's a dirt path running parallel to one side of the street, which suggests pedestrian activity in this area. Telephone poles line both sides of what seems like a rural road or access pathway leading into and out from these homes.
The landscape extends towards rolling hills on the horizon, indicating that the neighborhood is situated within a hilly region. There are no people visible in the photograph, focusing instead on the setting itself—a snapshot perhaps of daily life during a period when such suburban housing projects were being developed post-war reconstruction or similar era's urbanization push.

Looking down one street in newly completed camp (FSA - Farm Security Administration). Note garbage disposal, street lights, street curbing, water tank, and manager's house at end of street. Near McMinnville, Yamhill County, Oregon
![The image depicts a black and white view of what appears to be an early 1930s scene, as indicated by the photo source year noted at the bottom right corner. The landscape shows a wide dirt road with several wooden structures on its sides, which resemble barracks or temporary housing units commonly associated with military or labor camps.
On both sides of the street stand multiple two-story buildings that appear to be constructed from wood and have sloping roofs. These could possibly serve as living quarters for people working in an area not yet fully developed or inhabited. To the left side, closer to the foreground, there's a fenced-off corrugated iron structure which might function as storage.
The street is lined with utility poles carrying wires, some of them supporting overhead electric lights that are turned off at this moment. At the far end stands an old water tower on stilts and another wooden building identified as "manager's house," suggesting administrative or supervisory functions related to a larger operation occurring in this area.
Garbage disposal is visibly absent from the scene; it might indicate either early stages of establishment, strict cleanliness practices by inhabitants, or perhaps the absence of amenities at that time. The overcast sky and stark environment underscore the bleakness often associated with rural development during the Great Depression era when such camps were common across Americ [...]](https://mastodon.ozioso.online/system/media_attachments/files/114/126/749/120/375/103/original/265a3b68618838b4.jpeg "The image depicts a black and white view of what appears to be an early 1930s scene, as indicated by the photo source year noted at the bottom right corner.

Picking cotton. San Joaquin Valley, California
#SanJoaquinValley #California #American #DorotheaLanges #America #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange
![The image is a black and white photograph depicting two individuals working in an agricultural field. The person on the left appears to be seated amidst rows of plants, possibly tending or picking them, while the individual on the right stands upright, seemingly engaged in inspecting or harvesting crops as well.
They are both wearing hats for sun protection and appear focused on their tasks. Their attire suggests that they may be laborers working in a field with manual cultivation methods typical to historical agricultural practices.
The landscape is vast, with rows of plants stretching into the distance under an open sky. The scene captures a moment from rural life likely taken during a time when such manual farming was common.
In terms of context and background information, this photograph seems to reflect conditions in the San Joaquin Valley region of California as mentioned in your source link 'Picking cotton'. This historic agricultural area known for its significant contribution to American agriculture may have been depicted here. The image evokes a sense of rural labor and the human effort involved in farming during an earlier era, potentially aligning with historical photographs from Dorothea Lange's collection that documented various aspects of life in America.
The photo is labeled "D-124PP-A" at the top right corner which could be indicative of its catalog or reference number within a larger archive.

![The image is a black and white photograph capturing the essence of agricultural labor. It depicts an individual, likely female based on appearance, engaged in picking cotton from a field under bright sunlight. The person wears casual work attire suitable for manual labor: loose-fitting pants tucked into sturdy boots and a long-sleeve blouse that's pulled up at the wrists to prevent direct sun exposure.
The worker is bent over one of the plants, using both hands to gather or pick something—potentially cotton bolls given context. The field extends into the background with rows upon rows filled with dry, leafless plants—a stark contrast to the living ones in immediate proximity. This scene suggests late harvest time when most leaves have fallen off.
The photograph is credited as a part of "Cotton picker," showcasing agricultural labor within Southern San Joaquin Valley, California. Dorothea Lange's signature and date are visible on this image which indicates its historical importance as it likely serves to document the working conditions during that era in America's history when such fieldwork was prevalent for many communities.
There is Japanese text written vertically along one side of the photograph with English translations: "Cotton picker - A woman picking cotton," followed by a date or signature, possibly related to Lange.

Company housing for cotton workers near Corcoran, California
#Corcoran #California #DorotheaLanges #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange
![The alt text for this image is: "A black and white photograph depicting a row of modest wooden cabins, possibly company housing for workers. The scene shows clear skies with no visible clouds, suggesting it may be taken during the day under bright conditions.
These structures are simple in design, featuring basic gable roofs and minimal ornamentation or decoration. Each cabin appears to have its own door, some open while others closed, revealing glimpses of interiors that could hint at daily living activities within these spaces. The ground is unpaved with patches of dry dirt, indicating a rural setting.
Visible elements around the cabins include various objects like barrels, ladders, and what looks like household items or tools placed outside each dwelling. There are people present; one can be seen standing to the rightmost side near their cabin engaged in an activity on the ground, possibly laundry work given they appear to have a bucket with them.
The photograph captures a snapshot of rural life during perhaps the early 20th century, evidenced by the architectural style and quality of living depicted. The presence of these cabins likely signifies the conditions faced by laborers or workers who were provided housing as part of their employment terms."

#Delta #Mississippi #500,000bales #DorotheaLanges #American #DorotheaLange #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange
![This black and white photograph depicts a rural scene from the Delta region in Mississippi, known for its cotton production. The image shows two weathered wooden structures with gabled roofs situated on either side of a dirt road that cuts through rows of vibrant green cotton plants stretching into the distance. In front of one structure, an individual is seen standing beside what appears to be a small shed or barn. Alongside this building are horses harnessed to a cart, indicating agricultural activity in progress.
The sky above is partially cloudy with patches of blue peeking through, and tall trees rise from either side of the road, providing some shade on the otherwise open landscape. The overall composition suggests a typical day in the life of farmers working their land during cotton harvesting season. This image evokes themes of rural simplicity and labor within the agricultural economy.
This photograph is part of Dorothea Lange's collection, which documents various aspects of American society between 1903 to her death in 1965. Her work captures moments from everyday life, often highlighting social issues such as poverty, immigration, and displacement during the early 20th century.
