HINE - HOME INDUSTRY, 1910. A Glimpse into the Lives of Young Workers in New York City
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This sepia-toned photograph by Lewis Hine, taken in February 1910, offers a poignant snapshot of daily life for three young girls and a boy working diligently on garments within the confines of their tenement apartment in bustling New York City. The image transports us to an era when child labor was unfortunately prevalent. In this intimate interior setting, we witness these industrious siblings engaged in piecework under the watchful eye of their mother. Their serious expressions reflect the weighty responsibilities thrust upon them at such tender ages. As they meticulously sew and create garments, one can't help but admire their dedication and skill despite their challenging circumstances. The worn-out surroundings serve as a stark reminder of the poverty that plagued many working-class families during this period.

Lewis Hine's powerful lens captures not only the physical labor but also hints at the emotional toll borne by these children who were denied a carefree childhood. This thought-provoking image serves as a testament to both their unwavering work ethic and society's need for reform. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from The Granger Collection, we are reminded to appreciate how far we have come since then while acknowledging that there is still much work to be done to ensure every child has access to
