EDITORS COMMENTS
Brooklyn (circa 1910): A captivating glimpse into the bustling streets of Brooklyn, New York City, where time seems to stand still. In this black and white urban print by Edwin Levick, we are transported back in time to witness the congestion and chaos that defined a typical day on a main thoroughfare. The scene unfolds with an array of elements capturing the essence of early 20th-century city life. Horses pull carts laden with barrels and crates, while pedestrians navigate their way through the crowded street. The iconic Manhattan Bridge looms majestically over the East River, connecting Brooklyn to Manhattan as a symbol of progress and connectivity. Amidst this organized chaos, one can't help but notice the various roles and occupations at play. Drivers skillfully maneuver their horse-drawn vehicles while store owners tend to their businesses along the thoroughfare. The presence of animals adds another layer of authenticity to this snapshot from history. Edwin Levick's masterful composition captures not only the physicality but also the energy and movement inherent in city life during this era. It serves as a reminder that even then, traffic jams were an unavoidable part of daily existence. This archival photograph is more than just an image; it is a portal into a bygone era – evoking nostalgia for simpler times while showcasing how far we have come in terms of transportation and urban development.
