Hine (\u003c\/span\u003e1874–1940) shaped our consciousness of \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eAmerican working life in the early 20th century\u003c\/span\u003e like no other. Combining his training as an educator with his \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ehumanist concerns\u003c\/span\u003e, Hine was one of the \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eearliest photographers to use the camera as a documentary tool\u003c\/span\u003e, capturing in particular labor conditions, housing, and immigrants arriving on Ellis Island. His images, including those of children in cotton mills, factories, coal mines, and fields, became \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eicons of photographic history\u003c\/span\u003e that helped to \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003etransform labor laws\u003c\/span\u003e in the United States.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book brings together a representative collection of Lewis W. Hine’s \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ephotography from all periods of his work\u003c\/span\u003e. It spans his earliest forays into social-documentary work through to his more artistic and interpretative late photographs, including his phenomenal images of the construction of the \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eEmpire State Building\u003c\/span\u003e and his symbiotic staging of human and machine as a comment on increasing industrialization. Alongside the \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003enear 350 photographs\u003c\/span\u003e, the book includes an essay by the editor, introducing Hine’s life and pioneering work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ingram Publisher Services (TASCHEN)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50555409301561,"sku":"210000000247","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/0872\/9145\/files\/81pt4o96kal-sl1500.jpg?v=1790278365","url":"https:\/\/shop.icp.org\/products\/lewis-hine-america-at-work","provider":"International Center of Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
