EDITORS COMMENTS
This gelatin silver photo, taken by Jessie Tarbox Beals between 1917 and 1920, transports us back in time to the vibrant streets of Greenwich Village, New York. The image captures the essence of a bygone era with its rich historical significance. Located at 11 Christopher Street, this photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of this bustling neighborhood. In the background, we see an intriguing view of a back alley adorned with laundry hanging on lines across it. This simple act reveals the intimate details of everyday living during that period. The scene is further animated by men standing next to a horse-drawn carriage wearing their overcoats, perhaps engaged in conversation or awaiting their next destination. Meanwhile, children playfully occupy the lower left corner of the frame, adding an element of innocence and joy to this urban tableau. Beals' composition not only captures these candid moments but also serves as a visual time capsule for future generations to appreciate and understand life in early 20th-century America. Preserved within the collection of the New-York Historical Society, this gelatin silver print stands as a testament to Beals' skillful eye for detail and her dedication to documenting history through photography. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded that every photograph has its own story waiting patiently to be discovered and shared with those who seek connection with our past.
