EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "HINE: EMBOSSING SHOP, 1917" takes us back in time to witness a moment of young Fred's life. At just 14 years old, he can be seen diligently cutting dies in Harry C. Taylor's embossing shop on Court Street in Boston, Massachusetts. The image captures the essence of early 20th-century America, where child labor was unfortunately prevalent. Fred represents countless children who were thrust into adult responsibilities at a tender age. Despite his youth, he displays an air of maturity and responsibility beyond his years. Lewis Wickes Hine masterfully freezes this poignant scene in time with his camera lens during January 1917. The composition draws our attention to Fred as the central figure against the backdrop of the bustling interior of the shop. In this portrait-like photograph, we see not only a boy but also a glimpse into working-class life during that era. It serves as a reminder of how far society has come in protecting the rights and well-being of children. As we reflect upon this powerful image from Granger Art on Demand's collection by Granger NYC/The Granger Collection, it is important to acknowledge both its historical significance and its ability to evoke empathy for those who endured such challenging circumstances.
