EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Three Young Newsboys Smoking, Saint Louis, Missouri, USA, 1910" captures a poignant moment in history. Taken by Lewis Wickes Hine, an investigative photographer for the National Child Labor Committee, this image sheds light on the harsh realities faced by children during that time. The scene unfolds at Skeeters Branch in St. Louis on a Monday morning in May. Three young newsboys are depicted smoking cigarettes while wearing worn-out hats and holding newspapers. Their faces reveal both innocence and weariness beyond their years. Hine's powerful lens exposes the exploitation of these boys who were forced into labor at such tender ages. The photo serves as a reminder of the widespread issue of child labor prevalent across America during this era. Intriguingly composed against a backdrop of poverty-stricken streets, this image embodies resilience amidst adversity. It showcases how these young workers found solace in tobacco as they navigated their challenging lives. Lewis Hine's work played a crucial role in advocating for reforms to protect children from exploitative working conditions. Through his photographs like this one, he aimed to raise awareness about child labor and inspire change within society. Today, this photograph is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City where it continues to serve as a visual testament to the struggles endured by countless children throughout American history.
