1913 Children Cotton Family Farm Farmer Farmhouse Hine Lewis Plaid Porch Sack Southwest Texas Wickes
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "HINE: FARM OWNERS, 1913" transports us back to a cotton farm near West, Texas. Taken by the renowned photographer Lewis Wickes Hine in 1913, it offers a glimpse into the lives of the Sulak family. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a picturesque farmhouse with a welcoming porch adorned with plaid curtains. The Sulak family stands proudly on their land, representing the hardworking spirit of early American farmers. Men and women alike are dressed in traditional attire suitable for farm work. The children steal our attention as they stand close to their parents. A young boy gazes curiously at the camera while clutching a sack filled with cotton - perhaps his contribution to the family's laborious efforts. Beside him stands his sister, her eyes shining with innocence and curiosity about life on their Southwest cotton farm. This image encapsulates both the challenges and joys of farming life during that era. It serves as an important historical document preserved by the Library of Congress, reminding us of our agricultural heritage and offering insight into rural America at that time. As we admire this remarkable piece captured over a century ago by Lewis Wickes Hine, let us reflect upon how far we have come while honoring those who worked tirelessly to build our nation's foundation through their dedication to farming and family values.
