EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Doffer Boys, Macon, Georgia" was taken by Lewis W. Hine in January 1909. The image showcases the harsh reality of child labor during the early 20th century in Macon, Georgia, United States. In this gelatin silver print measuring 12.2 x 17.4 cm (4 13/16 x 6 7/8 in. ), Hine captures a poignant moment that speaks volumes about the lives of these young boys. Dressed in tattered clothing and with weary expressions on their faces, they are identified as doffer boys – children responsible for removing full bobbins from spinning frames and replacing them with empty ones. Hine's photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the difficult conditions faced by many working-class families at that time. It sheds light on the exploitation of child laborers who were forced to work long hours under dangerous circumstances instead of receiving an education or enjoying their childhood. The composition and lighting used by Hine create a somber atmosphere that evokes empathy from viewers even over a century later. This thought-provoking image is not just a historical artifact but also serves as an important social commentary on the need for reform and protection for vulnerable members of society.
