Who: Dorothea Lange
What: An influential documentary photographer
When: 1895-1965
Where: San Fransisco, California
Why: She wanted to bring people suffering from the depression into the public eye, she didn't want them to go unnoticed.
How: She took pictures of people who were greatly effected by the great depression and that brought them media attention so they could get more help.
I chose this photo because it is both good and ugly. The emotion that the two of them exhibit is so beautiful yet heartbreakingly sad and hopeless. This picture shows raw emotion it may not be happy but its genuine emotion. Overall this picture is amazing because it makes you feel something.
