Dorothea Lange - greatest humanist photographer ever?

"SHORPY - The-100-year Old Photo Blog" has a great collection of old photos in fairly high quality, including some of Dorothea Lange's classics.

Their Lange-collection can be found here, including Lange's own captions. Be sure to check them out, they're in higher quality than those I've posted here.

Dust bowl/depression slideshows

There's a series of slide shows of classic photos available on youtube "America Comes of Age". The image resolution is not ideal for those kinds of photos, but the music's great.





..guess I'll simply have to hunt for the photos in better quality.

(part one and four is about the 20s and about Korea.)
