Catalog notes
Checklist #391, Section 31 Hard Times. Farm Security Administration (commissioner), American, 18 x 12 3/4 cm. First Ben Shahn plate in the checklist (a grep of data/photographs.csv this session returns no prior ‘Shahn’ photographer row). First Ben Shahn FSA-credited entry in the catalog. The canonical spelling of the photographer’s name has NOT been cross-verified against any fetched source this round; Ben Shahn (1898-1969) is widely identified in 20th-century American art history as the Lithuanian-born American social-realist painter and photographer associated with the Farm Security Administration documentary project, but those biographical and movement-association details are NOT re-verified against any fetched source this round and no Shahn source file exists in the repo; preserved here only as general-knowledge context, not as an authoritative claim. Section 31 HARD TIMES mapped to sec-hardship-suffering-war per photo-0376 note (clean cluster fit).
