EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment frozen in time - the settlement of sardine workers from Factory #2 at the Seacoast Canning Co. in Eastport, Maine. Taken by renowned photographer Lewis Hine in August 1911, this image offers a unique window into the living conditions and daily lives of these hardworking individuals. In sepia tones that evoke nostalgia for an era long gone, we see rows of modest homes lining a quiet street. These humble dwellings served as sanctuaries for those toiling away at the nearby cannery. The turn-of-the-century architecture reflects simplicity and functionality, designed to accommodate families who relied on this industry for their livelihoods. The photograph not only showcases the exterior of these worker housing units but also provides us with glimpses into their vibrant community. People can be seen going about their daily routines - children playing outside while adults engage in conversations or tend to household chores.
