“I see one-third of a nation ill-housed, ill-clad, ill-nourished.” With these words, FDR captured the despair of the Great Depression—echoed in Guglielmi’s One Third of a Nation (1939).

Stark and symbolic, the work blurs realism and metaphor to mourn a fractured America and expose its silent suffering
