  • Lange, Dorothea: Abandoned church in cutover area, Boundary County, Idaho
    Jun. 04, 2025

    Lange, Dorothea: Abandoned church in cutover area, Boundary County, Idaho

    Est: €600 - €800

    Abandoned Church in Cutover Area, Boundary County, Idaho. 1939. Gelatin silver print, printed 1940s. 20,7 x 25,5 cm. With typewritten title, location, and date; FSA copyright stamp and Culver Pictures, Inc. reproduction stamp on the verso, along with annotations in ballpoint pen and pencil. - - This photograph by Dorothea Lange features a solitary, weathered church set against a backdrop of cleared forestland, approximately two miles south of the Canadian border. The image highlights the desolation following extensive logging activities, reflecting the economic and environmental challenges of the era. Lange’s work with the Farm Security Administration aimed to document rural hardships during the Great Depression, and this photograph serves as a poignant testament to the impact of industrial practices on both communities and landscapes. – One of the stamps on the verso is faintly visible through the print. Corners are bumped, with some scuff marks, handling creases, and creases in the upper and lower right corners, otherwise in good condition. - - Sollten Sie detailliertere Zustandsberichte wünschen, kontaktieren Sie uns bitte. / Should you need more detailed condition reports, please contact us.

    Est: $5,000 - $7,500

    DOROTHEA LANGE (1895-1965) Migrant Mother, Nipomo, California (horizontal). March 1936; printed 1980s. Silver print, the image measuring 15½x19½ inches (39.4x49.5 cm.), the sheet slightly larger. Provenance Bettmann Archive; gifted to the Present Owner, circa 1995 Migrant Mother's creation and subsequent transformation to cultural icon is well documented. Lange made this image, along with six other frames, of the same woman, Florence Owens Thompson, in 1936. Taken in early March, by the 11th of that month it had been reproduced to thousands of newspaper readers for the first time (in the San Francisco News accompanying an editorial titled "What Does the ‘New Deal' Mean to This Mother and Her Children?"). Since then, its power and visual impact has only grown and multiplied, becoming one of the most recognizable and reproduced images in the world. It has not lost its ability to move and connect, a testament to Lange's enduring empathy and abilities as a photographer. Here we offer a less frequently seen horizontal frame, printed in an unusually large format. In February 1936 Lange's Farm Security Administration assignment required a month-long road trip in central California. She finished her work in Nipomo, a remote, rural region. On her long drive home she glimpsed a hand-lettered sign that read PEA-PICKERS CAMP, with an arrow. She continued to drive, in the rain, while her inner voice persisted. Decades later, Lange recounted the experience as providential: "I was on my way and barely saw a crude sign with a pointing arrow which flashed by at the side of the road, saying PEA-PICKERS CAMP. But out of the corner of my eye I did see it. I didn't want to stop and didn't. I didn't want to remember that I had seen it, so I drove on and ignored the summons. [. . .] Having well convinced myself for 20 miles that I could continue on, I did the opposite. Almost without realizing what I was doing I made a U-turn on the empty highway. I went back those 20 miles and turned off the highway at that sign, PEA-PICKERS CAMP." -- Dorothea Lange in an 1960 interview with Popular Photography

    DOROTHEA LANGE (1895-1965) Migrant Mother, Nipomo, California (Destitute pea pickers in California. Mother of seven children. Age 32). Silver print, the image measuring 9⅜x7¼ inches (23.8x18.4 cm.), the sheet 10x8 inches (25.4x20.3 cm.), with Lange's F.S.A. credit stamp, a Farm Security Administration stamp, the typed title and date, and the RA number in pencil, on verso. March 1936 Provenance: A Private Collection of an Artist, Washington, D.C. and Baltimore Dorothea Lange believed strongly in the camera's ability to effect change and powerfully illustrate injustice and inequalities. Her images are both deeply empathetic and outraged, and her methods--open, instinctual, responsive, and intimate--created some of the most enduring and iconic images from the period. "Open yourself as wide as you can, like a piece of unexposed, sensitized material," she wrote. Migrant Mother's creation and subsequent transformation to cultural icon is well documented. Lange made this image, along with six other frames, of the same woman, Florence Owens Thompson, in 1936. Taken in early March, by the 11th of that month it had been reproduced to thousands of newspaper readers for the first time (in the San Francisco News accompanying an editorial titled "What Does the ‘New Deal' Mean to This Mother and Her Children?"). Since then, its power and visual impact has only grown and multiplied, becoming one of the most recognizable and reproduced images in the world. It has not lost its ability to move and connect, a testament to Lange's enduring empathy and abilities as a photographer.
