Artists in other countries have appropriated the image, changing the mother’s features into those of other ethnicities, but keeping her expression and the positions of her clinging children. Long after anyone could help the Thompson family, this picture has resonance in another time of national crisis, unemployment and food shortages.\n",

The Bureau of American Ethnology in Washington, D.C., regularly arranged for its photographer, De Lancey Gill, to photograph Native American delegations that came to the capital to confer with officials about tribal needs and concerns. Although Gill described Chief Joseph as having “an air of gentleness and quiet reserve,” the delegate skeptically appraises the photographer, which is not surprising given that the United States broke five treaties with Chief Joseph and his father between 1855 and 1885.\n",

"The Library is pursuing a multiyear plan to transform the experience of its nearly 2 million annual visitors, share more of its treasures with the public and show how Library collections connect with visitors’ own creativity and research. The project is part of a strategic plan established by Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden to make the Library more user-centered for Congress, creators and learners of all ages.\n",

"A 2018 exhibition at the Annenberg Space for Photography in Los Angeles featured over 400 photographs from the Library.

"To enhance the Library’s holdings, the foundation is giving the Library photographic prints for long-term preservation from 10 other exhibitions hosted at the Annenberg Space for Photography.

"The historical context of this image is related to the Great Depression, which was a period of economic hardship in the United States that lasted from 1929 to 1939. During this time, many people struggled to make ends meet, and poverty was widespread. This photograph captures the plight of one such family during this difficult period.\n",
"\n",
"The symbolism of the image is multifaceted. The woman's direct gaze at the camera can be seen as a plea for help or an expression of desperation. The ragged clothing of the children serves as a stark reminder of the poverty and hardship experienced by many during this time.\n",
"\n",
"In terms of connections to the related text, it is mentioned that Florence Owens Thompson, the woman in the photograph, initially regretted having her picture taken. However, she later came to appreciate the importance of the image as a representation of the struggles faced by many during the Great Depression. The mention of Helena Zinkham suggests that she may have played a role in the creation or distribution of this photograph.\n",
"\n",
"Overall, this image is a powerful depiction of poverty and hardship during the Great Depression, capturing the resilience and struggles of one family amidst difficult times. \n"
