EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Lewis Hine in 1924, transports us back to a time when child labor was prevalent in American industries. The image depicts a young worker standing proudly amidst the textile machinery at the Cheney Silk Mill in Manchester, Connecticut. With a hint of sepia adding depth to the portrait, we see an adolescent girl who exudes both innocence and resilience. Despite her tender age, this unidentified girl is already immersed in the world of work. Her smile may be masking the hardships she endures daily as part of the working class. Surrounded by spools of thread and intricate machinery, she represents countless children whose childhoods were stolen by poverty and necessity. Hine's powerful composition not only captures this young worker's spirit but also serves as a reminder of an era marked by exploitation within industrial settings. As viewers, we are compelled to reflect on our progress since then while acknowledging that child labor remains an issue today. The Granger Collection brings forth this thought-provoking print from their archives without mentioning any commercial use or endorsing any specific company. Through its timeless appeal and historical significance, this image invites us to confront uncomfortable truths about our past while inspiring action towards creating a better future for all children around the world.
