EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment frozen in time - the settlement of sardine workers from Factory #2 at the Seacoast Canning Co. in Eastport, Maine. Taken by renowned photographer Lewis Hine in August 1911, this image offers a unique window into the living conditions and daily lives of these hardworking individuals.

The turn-of-the-century architecture reflects simplicity and functionality, designed to accommodate families who relied on this industry for their livelihoods.
