EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "MEDICAL EXAM, 1917" captures a poignant moment in history as school children receive throat exams at Washington School in Lawton, Oklahoma. The image was skillfully captured by Lewis Wickes Hine in 1917. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the early days of medical examinations for young students. A group of boys and girls stand patiently inside an interior room while a doctor attentively examines their throats. The serious expressions on their faces reveal both curiosity and perhaps a touch of apprehension. The sepia-toned print adds to the nostalgic atmosphere, transporting us back to a different era when healthcare practices were still evolving. It serves as a reminder of how far medicine has come since then. Lewis Wickes Hine's talent shines through his ability to capture the essence of this moment with such clarity and emotion. Through his lens, he immortalizes not only the children but also the dedicated man who is diligently performing these important examinations. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph from Granger Art on Demand's collection, we are reminded of the significance of education and healthcare for our youth throughout history. It serves as a testament to progress made over time while honoring those who have contributed to shaping modern medical practices.
