HINE - MILL HOUSING, 1912. A Glimpse into the Struggles of a Polish American Family

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This poignant photograph captured by Lewis Hine in November 1912 offers a glimpse into the challenging living conditions faced by immigrant families working at the Olneyville Cotton Mill in Providence, Rhode Island. In this image, we see a weary Polish American mother surrounded by her children in their cramped three-room apartment. Shared between eight workers, this modest space serves as both refuge and hardship for this family. The room is filled with worn-out furniture and meager belongings that reflect the harsh reality of poverty during this era. The sepia tones evoke an early turn-of-the-century atmosphere while emphasizing the somberness of their situation. Despite their limited resources, love and resilience shine through as the mother tenderly cradles her baby while her daughter stands nearby. Notably absent from this scene is any mention of commercial use or company affiliation; instead, it focuses on humanizing these hardworking individuals who formed the backbone of America's industrial revolution. This photograph reminds us of the sacrifices made by countless immigrant families striving for better lives amidst difficult circumstances. As we contemplate this powerful image from The Granger Collection's archives, let us remember those who toiled tirelessly to build our nation and honor their enduring spirit against all odds.
