EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a winter wonderland in Central Park, New York City, back in 1863. In this Currier & Ives print titled "Central-Park, Winter; The Skating Pond" couples, individuals, and children gracefully glide across the frozen pond on ice skates. The scene is filled with joyous laughter and rosy cheeks as people enjoy the invigorating outdoor activity. The image showcases two prominent buildings surrounding the skating pond. On the right stands a changing room where skaters can warm up or switch into their skating gear. Adjacent to it is another building adorned with flags, serving as a restaurant and saloon for visitors seeking refreshments after an exhilarating skate. The enchanting atmosphere is further enhanced by the presence of a charming bridge that stretches over part of the pond. A dog playfully accompanies its owner across this picturesque setting while a child excitedly watches nearby. This historic print not only immortalizes an era gone by but also encapsulates timeless leisure activities enjoyed during winter months. It serves as a testament to how Central Park has long been cherished as a sanctuary amidst bustling city life – providing solace and endless opportunities for recreation throughout generations.
