eng	Migrant Mother: the Depression Era Madonna	In the 1930s, American photography was enriched by the works of a group of documentary photographers in which Dorothea Lange seemed to play quite a significant role. “Migrant Mother,”Lange’s portrait of a woman holding a baby and surrounded by two of her other children, immediately exceeded boundaries of an ordinary photograph and became more than an icon of a forlorn decade. The photograph’s unusual composition, reflecting Lange’s ability to capture feelings of sorrow and hunger together with hope, confidence, and solidarity, forced many art critics to analyze the photograph and discuss its hidden meanings. One such view of the image compares it to a portrayal of Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus. This article is an attempt to explain this biblical interpretation, as well as to describe the genesis of one of the best known photographs of the twentieth century.
