EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating photograph, titled "Grace Godwins Garret, Greenwich Village, New York, USA" transports us back to the bohemian atmosphere of early 20th century America. Taken by renowned photographer Jessie Tarbox Beals in 1917-18, this gelatin silver print captures a moment frozen in time. In the image, we see Grace Godwin seated comfortably with an acoustic guitar on her lap and a contented cat by her side. The walls behind her are adorned with whimsical drawings of people at a cafe or salon, adding to the artistic ambiance of the room. A note pinned to the wall boldly declares: "This place ain't bohemian" perhaps hinting at an ironic commentary on societal expectations. Located at 58 Washington Square South in Greenwich Village - known for its vibrant art scene - Grace's garret becomes a window into a world where creativity thrived. This intimate space served as both sanctuary and inspiration for artists seeking refuge from mainstream society. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph today, it serves as a reminder of how places like Grace's garret were once havens for unconventional thinkers and free spirits who challenged societal norms through their artistry. It invites us to reflect on the rich history of Greenwich Village as a hub for creative expression that continues to inspire generations even now.
