EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Gordon Parks captures the essence of a stevedore hard at work on the lower east side of New York City in 1943. The image showcases a man dressed in bib overalls, reflecting the fashion clothing of the era, as he meticulously packs and loads crates of fish at the Fulton Fish Market. With his rugged appearance and determined expression, this dock worker embodies the resilience and dedication that defined America during this pivotal time. Parks' composition skillfully highlights both the individual and his surroundings. The bustling dock serves as a backdrop, emphasizing the importance of this man's job within an industry vital to feeding a nation at war. Through his lens, Parks not only documents one man's occupation but also provides us with a glimpse into American history. As part of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) project under the Office of War Information (OWI), Parks captured images that aimed to document everyday life during this transformative period. His photographs became powerful tools for storytelling and social commentary. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical context but also in its artistic merit. It is through images like these that we can appreciate Gordon Parks' talent as both a photographer and storyteller. This particular print now resides within the Library of Congress collection, preserving an important piece of our country's heritage for generations to come.
