EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "HINE: BOY, 1916" captures the essence of a young Irish immigrant named James Cooney in Fall River, Massachusetts. Taken by renowned photographer Lewis Wickes Hine in 1916, this portrait provides a glimpse into the life of a determined teenager during early 20th century America. At just fifteen years old, James Cooney's face tells a story of resilience and hope. His profile is highlighted against an exterior backdrop, emphasizing his strong features and determination to overcome any obstacles that come his way. The sepia tones add depth and nostalgia to the image, evoking a sense of timelessness. As an Irish immigrant in North America during this era, James represents the countless individuals who sought better opportunities far from their homeland. This photograph serves as a testament to their courage and tenacity in pursuing dreams amidst unfamiliar surroundings.
