EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Broad Way from the Bowling Green" takes us back to the vibrant streets of New York City in 1828. The print, skillfully engraved by J. R. Hutchinson and captured by William James Bennett, measures 8.6x6.7 cm and is now housed at the Museum of the City of New York. The scene depicted showcases a bustling Broad Way (now known as Broadway) with its iconic architecture and lively atmosphere. At No. 1 Broadway, we catch a glimpse of Captain Archibald Kennedy's former residence, which temporarily served as General George Washington's abode after the War of Independence. As our eyes wander through this historical snapshot, we notice an array of intriguing details that bring life to the image: elegant horse-drawn carriages gracefully traversing the street while dogs playfully roam around; children joyfully running alongside their parents; crowds bustling about their daily activities amidst towering buildings and a charming church nestled in between. This enchanting engraving not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Manhattan's rich history and cultural heritage. It allows us to immerse ourselves in early American society while marveling at how much has changed over nearly two centuries. With its meticulous detail and vivid colours, this print offers viewers an opportunity to step into the past and experience firsthand what life was like on one of America's most famous avenues - Broadway.
