Description
I colorized this famous unnamed portrait taken by Dorothea Lange. Dorothea was an American documentary photographer and photojournalist, best known for her Depression-era work for the Farm Security Administration. Lange's photographs influenced the development of documentary photography and humanized the consequences of the Great Depression.
Lange began to photograph everyday street scenes during the great depression. She found all around her, luckless folks. Leaving her studio to document their lives in the streets and roads of California.
She roamed the byways with her camera, portraying the extent of the social and economic upheaval of the Depression. It is here that Lange found her purpose and direction as a photographer. She was no longer a portraitist; but neither was she a photojournalist. Instead, she became known as one of the first of a new kind, a "documentary" photographer. She was years ahead for women working in photojournalism or indeed any job during those early decades of the last century.
