EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "NEW YORK: TENEMENT, 1913" offers a poignant glimpse into the daily life of Jimmie Chinquanana and his family. Taken by Lewis Hine on September 16th, 1913, it showcases the humble living conditions in their home located at 11 Hamilton Street in New York City. In this intimate setting, we see Jimmie surrounded by his loved ones. The worn-out wooden walls and simple furnishings reflect the harsh reality of poverty that many families faced during this era. A young boy stands beside his father while a girl sits on an old bed nearby. Their mother is captured amidst her domestic chores as she tends to laundry and prepares coffee on a wood-burning stove. The sepia tones add a timeless quality to the image, evoking nostalgia for an earlier time in American history. Despite their circumstances, there is strength evident in their faces - resilience against adversity. Lewis Hine's masterful composition allows us to connect with these individuals from over a century ago. It serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by countless immigrant families who sought better opportunities but often found themselves confined within overcrowded tenements. This print from Granger Art on Demand provides us with not only visual beauty but also historical significance – shedding light on an important chapter in New York City's past and reminding us of the enduring spirit that resides within even the most challenging circumstances.
