This is a stunning collection of photographs showcasing one of the most crucial periods in Dorothea Lange's career. In 1935, photographer Dorothea Lange joined Franklin D. Roosevelt's Farm Security Administration project, charged with the task of inventing an iconography that would record and convey the tales of Depression-era America. It was a task that forced Lange's photography to evolve from its then portrait-based character, as she stepped out into the streets to document the woes of the Great Depression, thus creating what is today her most legendary body of work. "Dorothea Lange: The Crucial Years" gathers together more than 130 of the most iconic and important images from this formative period in Lange's career.
