BOYS SHOOTING CRAPS, c1910 - A Glimpse into the Lives of Newsboys in Rochester
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Lewis Hine takes us back to early 20th century Rochester, New York. In a narrow paper alley, a group of young boys can be seen engrossed in an intense game of craps. These spirited newsboys, with their caps pulled low and sleeves rolled up, are fully immersed in this popular street gambling activity. The image captures the essence of American life at the turn of the century - a time when poverty was rampant and children were often forced into labor. These adolescent players find solace and excitement amidst their daily struggles as they roll dice against the backdrop of bustling commerce. Hine's lens not only freezes this momentary escape from reality but also sheds light on child labor issues prevalent during that era. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder that these boys had to grow up too soon while facing economic hardships. As we observe this candid scene, it becomes evident that Hine skillfully captured both the innocence and resilience present within these young faces. This remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into their challenging yet vibrant lives as they navigate through North America's rapidly changing landscape. Granger Art on Demand presents "BOYS SHOOTING CRAPS, c1910" allowing us to appreciate Lewis Hine's profound documentation of everyday existence during this pivotal period in history.
