Author Author of the book upon which the photograph appears Welty, Eudora Photograph Title Title of photograph after: Ditched, stalled and stranded, San Joaquin Valley, California 1935 Book Genre Short stories Photo Genre Genre of Photograph Documentary Group Photographer Group FSA Photographer Photographer Lange, Dorothea Designer Designer of book cover Alcorn, John Notes Notes associated with the item Eudora Welty wrote about the American South, the place where she was born and lived most of her ninety-two years. The cover artwork for this collection of stories is an appropriate, if somewhat generic, reference to the simplicity and old-fashioned gentility which exists in many stereotypes of that region, along with, perhaps, a bit of menace in the driver's expression. Compare the image to Dorothea Lange's 'Ditched, Stalled and Stranded' of 1935, in the upper-right corner of this page. One can have little doubt but that Lange's photograph is the source. The fithy clothing and torn interior upholstry have been cleaned up, and the drivers hat and face have been replaced. This is as it should be: In Lange's image, the man sits limp-jawed and glassy-eyed; stunned, as if he is trying to recover from a knockout punch, which, in effect, he is. That is the strength of Lange's vision, but it would be far too powerful, and far too specific, for this book's cover.  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
