EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a slice of history from 1917 in Boston, Massachusetts. The image showcases the harsh reality of child labor as it depicts 14-year-old Mary Creed diligently selling cigars in a local store. The photographer, Lewis Wickes Hine, skillfully portrays the innocence and vulnerability of this young girl against the backdrop of an early 20th-century working-class environment. Mary's presence within the cigar store is both intriguing and disheartening. Her youth contrasts sharply with her responsibilities as she interacts with customers who come to purchase their tobacco products. Despite her tender age, Mary appears composed and focused on her task at hand. The interior of the shop exudes an aura of nostalgia, transporting viewers back to a time when such establishments were commonplace in North American cities. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by children during that era, highlighting societal issues surrounding child labor. Lewis Wickes Hine's powerful lens not only documents historical moments but also sheds light on social injustices that prevailed during his time. Through this thought-provoking image, we are compelled to reflect upon our progress in protecting children's rights while appreciating how far we have come since then.
