EDITORS COMMENTS
NEW YORK: TENEMENT, 1913. A Glimpse into the Struggles of Hyman Bachwald and His Family". This poignant photograph captures a moment frozen in time, revealing the harsh realities faced by one family in early 20th century New York City. In this two-room tenement on Allen Street, we witness the daily life of Hyman Bachwald, an epileptic boy, alongside his mentally ill mother and blind grandmother. The image portrays a scene filled with both despair and resilience. The worn-out bed covered with a tattered blanket symbolizes their poverty-stricken existence, while the presence of well-worn boots hints at their constant struggle to survive in downtown Manhattan's Lower East Side. Lewis Hine's lens beautifully encapsulates the intimate domestic setting where three generations coexist within these cramped quarters. Sepia tones add depth to this turn-of-the-century snapshot as it transports us back to September 16th, 1913. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the countless families who endured unimaginable hardships during this era. It serves as a stark reminder that poverty knows no boundaries – affecting even those living in North America's most prosperous city. As we reflect upon this powerful image captured over a century ago by Lewis Hine, let us remember not only its historical significance but also acknowledge the strength and resilience exhibited by individuals like Hyman Bachwald and his family amidst adversity.
