EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in 1964, we are transported to the bustling Brooklyn Terminal Market in New York. The image captures a heartwarming moment between Martin Krichmar, an employee of Waldbaum Supermarkets, and a young boy named John Friscia. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the market, Krichmar is seen offering a slice of juicy watermelon to Friscia. The joy on both their faces is evident as they share this simple yet delightful gift. This snapshot beautifully encapsulates the spirit of generosity and community that can be found even in the busiest corners of our cities. The photographer behind this timeless image is Phyllis Twachtman, who expertly freezes this fleeting moment for eternity. Through her lens, she captures not only the individuals involved but also provides us with a glimpse into mid-century American life. As we delve deeper into this photograph's details - from its location at Brooklyn Terminal Market to its subjects' names - it becomes clear that there is more than meets the eye here. However, it's important to note that commercial use should not be associated with this photo print. Granger Art on Demand presents us with another gem from their collection through "Watermelon, 1964". It serves as a poignant reminder of how small acts of kindness can create lasting memories and bring people together across time and space.
