An expansive look at portraiture, identity, and inequality as seen
in Dorothea Lange’s iconic photographs  Dorothea Lange
(1895–1965) aimed to make pictures that were, in her words,
“important and useful.” Her decades-long investigation of how
photography could articulate people’s core values and sense of
self helped to expand our current understanding of portraiture and
the meaning of documentary practice.  Lange’s sensitive
portraits showing the common humanity of often marginalized people
were pivotal to public understanding of vast social problems in the
twentieth century. Compassion guided Lange’s early portraits of
Indigenous people in Arizona and New Mexico from the 1920s and
1930s, as well as her depictions of striking workers, migrant
farmers, rural African Americans, Japanese Americans in internment
camps, and the people she met while traveling in Europe, Asia, and
Latin America. Â Drawing on new research, the authors look at
Lange’s roots in studio portraiture and demonstrate how her
influential and widely seen photographs addressed issues of
identity as well as social, economic, and racial
inequalities—topics that remain as relevant for our times as they
were for hers. Published in association with the National Gallery
of Art, Washington Exhibition Schedule: Â National Gallery of
