EDITORS COMMENTS
This gelatin silver photo, captured by Jessie Tarbox Beals in the early to mid-20th century, transports us back in time to a bustling corner of Greenwich Village. The image showcases three charming cafes nestled within 133 Washington Place: the Will o the Wisp Tea Room, Idee Chic, and Aladdin Tea Room. In this snapshot of New York's social life and customs, we witness the proprietors of each establishment proudly standing by their respective doors. Their presence exudes an air of confidence and dedication to providing exceptional experiences for their patrons. The Will o the Wisp Tea Room emanates an enchanting aura with its whimsical name and undoubtedly offers a cozy haven for tea enthusiasts seeking respite from city life. Meanwhile, Idee Chic presents itself as a trendy hotspot where fashionable individuals gather to see and be seen. Lastly, the Aladdin Tea Room promises an exotic escape into Arabian nights with its Middle Eastern-inspired decor. As we delve into this historic photograph held in the collection of the esteemed New-York Historical Society, we are reminded that even amidst urban chaos, there were corners like these where people sought solace or indulged in lively conversations over cups of steaming tea. This evocative image serves as a testament to both Beals' skillful photography and her ability to capture slices of everyday life that continue to fascinate us today.
