EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph transports us back to the year 1938, where we find ourselves amidst the rural landscape near Morganza, Louisiana. The lens of renowned photographer Russell Lee captures a young farm girl in her natural element, offering a poignant glimpse into an era marked by resilience and simplicity.
