Great Depression Picture

Children on East Sixty-first Street, probably between First and Second Avenues 
Walker Evans-1938

In this picture, Walker Evans shows that everyone, not only adults, were affected by the Great Depression. The picture shows a group of young boys standing around with what looks like nothing to do. The boys look sad and dirty, obvious victims of the Depression's wrath.
