EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in 1942, this poignant photograph from the Granger Collection takes us back to a simpler time at the Central Park Zoo in New York City. The image showcases a family enjoying a leisurely day amidst the bustling cityscape. In the foreground, we see a young couple pushing their stroller, with their adorable baby nestled inside. The father, dressed sharply in mid-century attire, holds onto his cigarette while gazing affectionately at his wife and child. Meanwhile, the mother radiates elegance as she walks beside him, her eyes fixed on something off-camera. The backdrop of Manhattan's skyline adds an air of grandeur to this snapshot of everyday life. Despite being surrounded by towering buildings and urban chaos, this family finds solace within the tranquil confines of Central Park Zoo. Photographer Marjory Collins expertly captures both the innocence and resilience that defined American families during this era. This black-and-white print serves as a reminder of how even amidst uncertain times - such as World War II - people sought moments of joy and connection. As we gaze upon this timeless scene frozen in history, it prompts us to reflect on our own lives and appreciate those simple pleasures that bring us together.
