EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: In this poignant black and white portrait captured by Central News in the early 20th century, we see Mr Samuel Gompers, the esteemed President of the American Federation of Labour, who is battling a grave illness. At 74 years old, his frailty is evident as he fights against influenza following a severe bout of pneumonia. The image captures both his physical vulnerability and unwavering determination. Mr Gompers was an influential figure in American labor history and played a pivotal role in championing workers' rights during his tenure. As president of one of the most prominent labor organizations in the United States, he tirelessly fought for fair wages, improved working conditions, and better treatment for all workers. This monochrome photograph serves as a reminder not only of Mr Gompers' personal struggle but also reflects on the broader challenges faced by workers during that era. It stands as a testament to his resilience and dedication to fighting for justice until his last breath. Preserved within Europeana Photography's vast collection of historical images, this portrait offers us a glimpse into the life and struggles of one man who dedicated himself to improving the lives of countless others. Let it serve as an inspiration to continue advocating for fairness and equality in our own time.
