EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Newsboy and Newsgirl, 1910" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Manhattan's Lower East Side. Captured by Lewis Hine in July 1910, this image showcases the resilience and determination of two young workers as they sell newspapers near saloon entrances on the Bowery. In sepia tones that evoke a sense of nostalgia, we see an adolescent newsboy standing tall with a stack of papers under his arm. Beside him stands a newsgirl, her face filled with youthful energy and ambition. These children represent the working class spirit that defined turn-of-the-century America. The backdrop reveals a cityscape teeming with activity - downtown buildings towering above them as pedestrians pass by. This portrait captures not only their individual stories but also provides insight into the commerce and daily life of early 20th century New York City. Lewis Hine was renowned for using photography to shed light on child labor issues during this era. Through his lens, he humanized these young vendors who played an integral role in disseminating information to the masses. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from The Granger Collection, we are reminded of the hardships faced by many during this time period while also recognizing the strength and resilience embodied by these young workers.
