EDITORS COMMENTS
CHICAGO: FAMILY, 1941. This powerful photograph captures an African American family in Chicago, Illinois during the summer of 1941. Taken by photographer Edwin Rosskam, it offers a glimpse into the lives of this resilient family living on the South Side of Chicago. In the image, a young man is seated on a stoop next to a woman holding their baby. The man exudes confidence and pride as he gazes directly at the camera while wearing fashionable attire for that era. The woman beside him radiates strength and tenderness as she cradles their precious child in her arms. The composition is strikingly framed with a doorway serving as both a physical and metaphorical threshold to their world. It symbolizes not only their home but also represents opportunities and challenges faced by African Americans during that time period. This photograph beautifully captures the essence of love, resilience, and hope within this African American family in 1940s Chicago. It serves as a poignant reminder of how families like theirs persevered through adversity while striving for equality. Granger Art on Demand presents this historical snapshot from its collection without mentioning any commercial use or affiliation with any company.
