EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Jane Addams, a remarkable figure in American history. Taken around 1925 by an anonymous American photographer, this image showcases Addams' influential presence as a sociologist, reformer, and philosopher. In this full-length portrait, Addams exudes strength and determination. Dressed in a simple yet elegant costume of the era, she stands tall with an air of confidence that is both inspiring and commanding. Her piercing gaze reveals her unwavering commitment to social work and her tireless efforts to bring about positive change. Jane Addams is best known for establishing Hull House in 1889, which served as a settlement house providing essential services to immigrants and impoverished communities. As one of the pioneers of social work in America, she dedicated her life to advocating for the rights of marginalized individuals and promoting equality. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Addams' enduring legacy. It symbolizes her significant contributions during the progressive era of the 1920s when societal norms were being challenged and redefined. Preserved within the Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe Institute, Harvard University, this print allows us to reflect upon Jane Addams' profound impact on society while reminding us that progress is achieved through compassion, empathy, and relentless determination.
