EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Scotts Run, West Virginia in March 1937. Titled "New Hill - A new camp" it showcases the best community on Scotts Run during a time of great hardship and struggle. Renowned American photographer Lewis Hine, known for his dedication to social reform, skillfully used his camera as a tool to shed light on the realities faced by Americans during the Great Depression. In this image, we are transported back in time to witness a close-knit community coming together amidst adversity. The resilience and strength of these individuals shine through their faces as they gather in what appears to be a newly established camp. Hine's documentary style beautifully captures both the physical surroundings and emotional spirit of this moment. As we reflect upon this photograph today, it serves as a powerful reminder of how art can drive social change. Hine's work not only documented history but also inspired reform movements that aimed to improve living conditions for those affected by poverty and economic downturns. This print from the Liszt Collection is an important piece of Americana that allows us to connect with our past while contemplating the progress made since then. It is a testament to both human resilience and photography's ability to transcend time, reminding us that even in our darkest moments, hope can prevail.
