Abstract (english)
The relationship between photography and class was established in the 19th century thanks to the work of photographers such as Jacob A. Riis. This resulted in the emergence of the worker-photography movement. This type of photography developed significantly in the interwar period, when Dorothea Lange and Edith Tudor-Hart photographed the harsh living conditions and social divisions of the Great Depression. By professionally photographing social life or ‘the life lived by the other half’, as Riis stated in the title of his book, they became social documentarians. Riis was referring to the well-known saying that ‘one half of the world does not know how the other half lives’. It was precisely owing to the ‘other half’ that the focus shifted to a whole range of marginal social groups, from workers, homeless people and immigrants, to all those removed from the centre of political power. Some of these photographs, such as Migrant Mother (1936) by Dorothea Lange, became iconic images of an era.
