EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "BUTCHER SHOP, c1939" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Chicago, Illinois. The exterior of a butcher shop is beautifully captured, showcasing the essence of early 20th-century America. The photograph transports us to a different era with its vintage charm and attention to detail. The storefront proudly displays its offerings, featuring an array of fresh meat behind the large window. A woman stands by the entrance, perhaps waiting for her turn or engaging in conversation with someone inside. A young child can be seen peering through the glass, their curiosity piqued by this fascinating world within. It's a reminder that even amidst busy city life, there is always room for wonder and discovery. The presence of a Coca-Cola sign on the door adds another layer of nostalgia to this scene. It serves as a reminder that even then, iconic brands played a role in everyday life. Photographed by Russell Lee in 1941 as part of his documentation project on American communities during that time period, this image captures not only a butcher shop but also reflects aspects of society and daily life at that particular moment in history. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this piece from their collection so we can appreciate and reflect upon our past while marveling at the timeless beauty it holds.
