Her sense of style was highlighted by the emerald green shirt, which contrasted with the rich blues and reds of her necklaces and rouge. The red background completed the composition.’ Photograph: Steve McCurry/Magnum Photos. (The Guardian)

The last years of his life were filled with professional struggles by loss of government and corporate patronage. Few people were interested in his work, past or present, and Hine lost his house and applied for welfare. He died on November 3, 1940 at Dobbs Ferry Hospital in Dobbs Ferry, New York, after an operation. He was 66 years old.
