EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures the harsh reality of early 20th-century American life. Taken in August 1912 by Lewis Hine, it depicts a mother and her six children diligently working on garment tags while sitting on a tenement stoop in Roxbury, Massachusetts. The image is tinged with sepia tones, adding to its historical significance. The scene portrays the struggles faced by this working-class family as they engage in piecework to make ends meet. The mother and her children are barefoot, highlighting their poverty and lack of resources. Each member of the family plays their part in this laborious task, showcasing their unity and resilience amidst difficult circumstances. The photograph also sheds light on child labor practices prevalent during that era. The presence of adolescent siblings alongside their younger sister and brother emphasizes how even young children were expected to contribute economically to support their families. Lewis Hine's work aimed to expose such social injustices through his photography, advocating for reform and improved living conditions for marginalized communities across America. This particular image serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by countless families during this period. Displayed here courtesy of The Granger Collection, New York / The Granger Collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon our collective history and appreciate the progress made since then towards ensuring better lives for all members of society.
