EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "SWEATSHOP, 1890" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of New York City. The image captures a necktie workshop located within a tenement on Division Street. It was taken by the talented photographer Jacob A. Riis in 1890. The photograph offers a glimpse into the late 19th-century American working class and immigrant communities that thrived in this vibrant city. In this cramped interior, we see men and women diligently engaged in their craft, ironing and manufacturing neckties amidst an atmosphere of hard work and determination. The scene is a poignant reminder of the poverty that plagued many during this era. The lower East Side neighborhood where this sweatshop was situated was notorious for its overcrowded tenements and dire living conditions. Yet, despite these hardships, individuals persevered through their labor-intensive jobs to make ends meet. Riis's lens beautifully captures both the resilience and struggles faced by those who called this place home. This powerful image serves as a testament to the strength of human spirit amidst adversity while shedding light on an important chapter in American history. As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported to another time - witnessing firsthand the daily lives of workers striving for better opportunities within New York City's garment industry at the turn of the century.
