EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "GARBAGE GLEANERS, 1910" takes us back in time to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The image, captured by Lewis Hine around the turn of the century, offers a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by working-class families during this era. In the photograph, we see two women and a young girl engaged in their daily work as garbage gleaners. They stand beside a large barrel and basket filled with discarded items that they have collected from nearby streets. Their worn-out clothes and tired expressions tell a story of poverty and struggle. Hine's lens not only captures the physical labor these women endure but also sheds light on child labor practices prevalent at that time. The presence of the young girl among them is a stark reminder of how early children were forced into contributing to their family's survival. The photo serves as an important historical document highlighting social issues such as poverty, gender roles, and economic disparity in early 20th-century America. It prompts us to reflect on our progress as a society while acknowledging the challenges faced by those who came before us. "GARBAGE GLEANERS, 1910" is more than just an artistic composition; it is an invitation to explore our collective past and empathize with those who lived through difficult times.
