EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "HINE: OUTHOUSES, 1912" transports us back to a time when life was simpler yet filled with hardships. Taken by the talented Lewis Wickes Hine in November 1912, it captures a scene from Borden Street in Providence, Rhode Island. In this sepia-toned print, we see a row of humble outhouses standing proudly in the backyard of a tenement house. The dilapidated wooden structures serve as reminders of the poverty that plagued many North American neighborhoods during this era. Surrounding them is an alley cluttered with garbage and debris, painting a vivid picture of the challenging living conditions faced by its inhabitants. Despite these difficult circumstances, there is an undeniable sense of resilience present within the frame. Children can be seen playing nearby while men go about their daily routines. A clothesline adorned with laundry stretches across the yard, symbolizing both practicality and resourcefulness amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this image frozen in time, we are reminded of how far society has come since then. It serves as a powerful testament to our progress and serves as a reminder to appreciate the modern conveniences often taken for granted today. Granger Art on Demand presents this remarkable piece from their collection - an evocative snapshot that not only documents history but also sparks contemplation about human perseverance and societal growth over time.
