New Mexico Southwest - WPA 1940s Silver-Gelatin Photograph

Item Details

Description

Original photograph of a person feeding goats in front of a wood and adobe building in New Mexico, possibly in Taos. WPA - New Deal. Circa 1940s. Appears to have been made with a large format camera.

Silver-gelatin photograph on double-weight mat stock. Unsigned, photographer unidentified, but numbered, lower right in the image, "N.M.-10802" (possibly a WPA number). Unframed. Not matted.

Beginning in the late 1930s, the Farmers Security Administration and other New Deal Agencies undertook the task of documenting American life. As part of this effort, Russell Lee, Arthur Rothstein, Dorthea Lange and Jack Delano, along with other photographers, captured images of New Mexico's past. Ansel Adams made a similar image, only without a figure, in 1938.

SIZE : 11" x 14"

PROVENANCE: Monterey, California collection.
