HINE - NEWSGIRL, 1912. A Glimpse into the Life of a Ten-Year-Old Newsgirl in Hoboken
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captured by Lewis Hine in December 1912 offers a poignant glimpse into the life of an industrious ten-year-old newsgirl on the bustling streets of Hoboken, New Jersey. Standing proudly at her newsstand on the corner of 4th and Garden Streets, this young girl embodies determination and resilience. Dressed warmly in her coat and hat to brave the chilly December air, she stands amidst a backdrop that tells its own story. On her right looms the entrance to a saloon, symbolizing both temptation and hardship that surrounded her daily work environment. With sepia tones adding depth to every detail, Hine's portrait highlights not only this young girl's innocence but also sheds light on child labor during early twentieth-century America. In an era when childhood was often sacrificed for economic survival, this image serves as a reminder of societal challenges faced by working-class families. As night falls over North Jersey, our young protagonist diligently tends to her stand filled with newspapers - perhaps dreaming of brighter days ahead. This evocative photograph captures both the spirit of commerce and the strength within this determined worker. Preserved through time by The Granger Collection, this print invites us to reflect upon history while honoring those who persevered against all odds – reminding us that even in darkness there is always hope for change
