Depression-era photographer Dorothea Lange chronicled the era for the Farm Security Administration and created one of the iconic images of that time, "Migrant Mother."
In a recent virtual presentation, MoMA curator Sarah Meister reveals that Lange displayed in her studio, the following quote from Francis Bacon:
The contemplation of things as they are
without substitution or imposture
without error or confusion
is in itself a nobler thing
than the whole harvest of invention.
