EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting photograph captures the devastating consequences of child labor in America during the early 20th century. Taken in 1916 by Lewis Wickes Hine, it depicts a young boy named Frank Wiegel bravely showing his hand to the camera, from which two fingers have been amputated. Frank's tragic injury occurred while he was working at the Henry Bosch Paper Co. , where he was subjected to grueling conditions as part of the working class. The sepia-toned portrait highlights not only his physical pain but also serves as a poignant reminder of the plight faced by countless children forced into labor at such a tender age. Hine's powerful photography played a crucial role in exposing these injustices and advocating for change. By capturing images like this one, he shed light on the harsh realities faced by child laborers across America, sparking public outrage and eventually leading to reforms that protected future generations from similar exploitation. Displayed here as a print courtesy of Granger Art on Demand, this image serves as an important historical document that reminds us of our collective responsibility to protect and nurture our youth. It stands as a testament to both Frank Wiegel's resilience and Hine's tireless efforts to bring about social change through his lens.
