The document provides an overview of three American artists - Thomas Hart Benton, Diego Rivera, and Dorothea Lange - and their contributions to social realism. It discusses Benton's murals and paintings depicting rural American life in the 1930s-40s. It examines Rivera's large murals dealing with Mexican history, culture, and social issues. It also looks at Lange's powerful documentary photographs that captured the Great Depression and Japanese internment in the US during the 1930s-40s.
