EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph titled "TWO BOYS, 1937" we are transported back to a simpler time. Two young African American boys find solace in each other's company as they sit on a weathered curb. The image, captured by the talented Carl Van Vechten in 1937, exudes an air of innocence and camaraderie. The boys' expressions tell a story of resilience and friendship amidst challenging circumstances. Their faces reflect both the hardships they may have faced at such an early age and their unwavering spirit that shines through. It is evident that these two individuals share a bond beyond words - one that transcends societal barriers. Van Vechten's skillful composition draws our attention to the contrasting textures surrounding the boys; from the roughness of the curb beneath them to the worn-out buildings in the background, it serves as a poignant reminder of their humble surroundings. This powerful photograph reminds us of the importance of human connection even during times when life seems difficult or uncertain. It captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to reflect upon our own relationships and appreciate those who stand by us through thick and thin. "The Granger Collection" presents this remarkable piece from its vast collection with great pride, showcasing not only its historical significance but also its artistic value.
