EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Migrant Family, 1909" captures the essence of early 20th-century American life. The image showcases Mrs. Bissie and her family, Polish migrant workers who toiled on a berry farm near Baltimore, Maryland. Taken by renowned photographer Lewis Hine in July 1909, this snapshot provides a glimpse into the daily struggles faced by working-class families during that era. The worn faces of Mr. and Mrs. Bissie reflect their arduous labor as they pose alongside their children in front of an exterior backdrop. The composition highlights the unity within this tight-knit group; each member plays a role in supporting one another amidst challenging circumstances. A young boy clutches a sack while his sister stands close by with determination etched across her face - both contributing to the family's harvest efforts. Hine's lens not only documents poverty but also humanizes these hardworking individuals who were often overlooked or forgotten by society at large. This portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by countless migrant workers seeking better opportunities in North America during this time period. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back to turn-of-the-century rural America where resilience prevailed despite economic hardships. It is through photographs like these that we gain insight into our collective past and honor those whose stories might otherwise have been lost to time.
