Lewis Wickes Hine

September 26, 1874   -   November 3, 1940
Photography   •   Wikipedia: Lewis Wickes Hine

Lewis Hine was an American photographer known primarily for his portraits of ordinary workers and emigrants. As a social documentarist, he wanted to show social grievances in the USA, shaken by years of depression and fierce labor struggles. As a trained sociologist, it was a matter close to his heart to achieve change with his relentless photographs of child labor.

"A good photograph is not simply the reproduction of an object or group of objects - it is an interpretation of nature, a rendering of the impressions the photographer receives and wants to convey to others." With this motto in mind, he talked about the construction of the Empire State Building, about child labour and the poor emigrants from Europe who arrived in their thousands at Ellis Island. His portrait of a migrant worker staring into space with her children is particularly impressive. The desperation and exhaustion on the young woman's face is almost tangible.

He himself came from a relatively humble background. After the early death of his father, he struggled with casual jobs until he managed to study education and sociology. At the same time he taught at the Ethical Culture School in New York. Under the influence of his colleagues he began to acquire the basic knowledge of photography autodidactically. Only a few years later he was able to work as a full-time photographer in Europe and the USA.
