EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Dorothea Lange in 1937, we are transported back to the rugged landscapes of Tombstone, Arizona. The image features two young boys joyfully riding a donkey, their carefree spirits contrasting with the somber backdrop of a sign leading into Tombstone and Boothill Graveyard. Lange's lens captures not only the innocence and playfulness of childhood but also hints at the rich history that surrounds them. As they traverse through this iconic Old West town, one can't help but wonder about the stories buried within Boothill Graveyard - tales of cowboys, outlaws, and pioneers who once roamed these very streets. The composition is strikingly simple yet evocative. The boys' silhouettes stand out against the vast expanse of desert landscape behind them, emphasizing their smallness in comparison to the grandeur of nature. Their presence serves as a reminder that life continues even amidst remnants of death. This photograph is more than just a snapshot frozen in time; it represents an era marked by resilience and transformation during America's New Deal period. It encapsulates both Native American heritage and early settler culture coexisting in harmony or perhaps tension. Dorothea Lange's keen eye for capturing human emotion combined with her ability to document historical moments makes this print from Granger Art on Demand truly timeless. It invites viewers to reflect upon our collective past while appreciating the beauty found within everyday moments like two boys riding a don
