Dorothea Lange "migrant mother"

1936, gelatin silver print


Dorothea lenge is a photographer that took historical cultural photograph. I chose this photograph because this photograph speaks me sadness and the hope. The face of mother express sadness for the situation around her. However, she express the hope for the future by her looking forward. She also tells me the determination that she will protect her children. The contrast of the light also express the tragedical situation and hope. The dark part of the behind them speaks bad situation they had have through and the light part of her face tells me the future she hope and she want to be. She consider a lot of things as a mother. She tries to be as a mother and get through a bad situation.
