The image captures the innocence and joy of a group of orphans on an exciting excursion. In this snapshot from 1911, we see children of all ages eagerly exploring the wonders of Luna Park. Their faces are filled with pure delight as they ride vintage carousels, play games, and indulge in sugary treats. The bustling streets of Brooklyn provide a lively backdrop for their adventure. The photograph not only showcases the carefree spirit of these young orphans but also offers glimpses into early 20th-century daily life.
