EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the bustling textile industry in Manchester, New Hampshire during April 1937. Taken by Lewis Hine, a renowned American photographer known for his dedication to social reform, this image captures the essence of Pacific Mills' Finisher Lapper (Front end) in action. In this snapshot of history, we witness the intricate process that transforms raw cotton into finished laps. The breaker lapper serves as the initial stage before reaching this finisher lapper, where skilled workers meticulously handle and manipulate the cotton fibers with utmost precision. Hine's camera becomes an invaluable tool for shedding light on the working conditions and labor practices prevalent during America's Great Depression era. Through his lens, he exposes not only industrial processes but also aims to ignite change within society itself. This photograph stands as a testament to Hine's commitment to documentary photography and his role as a catalyst for social change. It symbolizes an era when photographers like him used their artistry to advocate for better living conditions and fair treatment of workers across various industries. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of Americana captured by Lewis Wickes Hine over eight decades ago, let us reflect on its significance: a visual reminder that photographs can be powerful instruments capable of shaping our understanding of history while inspiring us towards progress and reform.
