EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the year 1906, capturing the essence of luxury and elegance at The Old King Cole Bar in the Hotel Knickerbocker. The silver gelatin print by Byron Company showcases a stunning mural painted by Maxfield Frederick Parrish, depicting the iconic figure of Old King Cole himself. The bar's interior is adorned with exquisite decoration, from its beautifully decorated ceiling to its wooden paneling that exudes sophistication. The tables and chairs are arranged meticulously throughout the saloon, creating an atmosphere of grandeur and refinement. Despite being empty in this particular moment frozen in time, one can imagine the lively conversations and clinking glasses that once filled this space. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the architectural style of the early 1900s, known as the Gilded Age. The plasterwork on the walls adds a touch of opulence while maintaining a sense of classical charm. It is evident that every detail was carefully crafted to create an ambiance befitting high society gatherings. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured over a century ago, we cannot help but appreciate both its historical significance and artistic beauty. This silver gelatin print allows us to step into a world long gone yet preserved forever through photography.
