EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a foggy morning at the Fulton Fish Market in New York City, taken by renowned photographer Gordon Parks in May 1943. The image showcases the atmospheric conditions that enveloped the bustling market, creating an ethereal and mysterious ambiance. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see vendors and customers navigating through the thick fog as they go about their daily routines. The wet ground adds to the overall dampness of the scene, emphasizing the weather conditions that were prevalent on that particular day. The Fulton Fish Market is known for its rich history and significance in New York City's culinary culture. This iconic landmark has been a hub for seafood trade since its establishment in 1822. Despite being captured during World War II, this image does not depict any signs of wartime activities but rather focuses on everyday life amidst challenging weather conditions. Gordon Parks' masterful composition allows us to immerse ourselves into this moment from over seven decades ago. Through his lens, he transports us back to a time when fishmongers would gather early each morning to sell their fresh catches while shrouded in misty veils. This print serves as a reminder of both our city's vibrant past and how nature can transform even mundane scenes into works of art.
