The Steerage, 1907
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of immigration and social inequality in early 20th century America. Taken by Alfred Stieglitz, this photograph depicts a crowded deck on the SS Kaiser Wilhelm II as it travels from New York City to Bremen. Often associated with the immigrant experience, it is interesting to note that Stieglitz actually captured this image while traveling as a first-class passenger himself. The composition showcases men, women, and children huddled together in cramped conditions, highlighting the stark contrast between different classes of passengers. The monochrome tones add depth and intensity to the scene, emphasizing the poverty and impoverished conditions faced by many immigrants during their journey. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by those seeking better opportunities in America. "The Steerage" not only documents daily life aboard a steamer but also reflects broader themes of inequality and social history. It has become an iconic representation of immigration during this era. This photogravure on Japanese vellum print is part of Addison Gallery of American Art's collection at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. Donated by Georgia O'Keeffe and Elizabeth Davidson, it stands as a testament to Stieglitz's artistic vision and his ability to capture poignant moments in time through his camera lens.
