Washing oranges at an orange packing co-op, Redlands, Calif. 1943
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a vibrant moment in the heart of America's citrus fruit industry during the tumultuous years of World War II. In this photograph by Jack Delano, we are transported to a bustling factory where workers diligently clean and prepare crates of oranges for distribution. The image showcases the industrious spirit that defined America during this era, as men and women came together to support their country's war efforts while maintaining essential industries. The cooperative nature of the orange packing co-op is evident as employees work side by side, united in their mission to provide nourishment and sustenance to both soldiers abroad and civilians on the home front. Delano's masterful use of color brings life to every detail within the frame - from the vivid hues of ripe oranges being carefully washed to the warm glow emanating from overhead lights. This still image serves as a testament not only to Delano's artistic prowess but also highlights his ability to capture significant moments in American history. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of our nation's resilience and determination during times of adversity. It stands as a tribute not only to those who worked tirelessly within these walls but also honors all Americans who contributed selflessly towards building a stronger future for generations yet unborn.
