EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the historic cityscape of Washington, D. C. In the foreground stands Ford's Theatre, forever etched in history as the site of President Abraham Lincoln's tragic assassination in 1865. The grandeur of this iconic theater is evident, with its impressive pediment and stately exterior. Adjacent to the theater are a series of buildings lining 10th Street Northwest. These structures provide a glimpse into late 19th-century urban life, showcasing storefronts and houses that were part of everyday existence during that era. The dirt road leading up to the theater adds an authentic touch, reminding us of simpler times when horse-drawn carriages roamed these streets. Photographed by Mathew Brady around 1875, this image captures both the midday hustle and bustle as well as a sense of solemnity associated with such a significant historical location. It serves as a powerful reminder not only of Lincoln's untimely demise but also of how cities evolve over time. Displayed proudly on any wall or mantelpiece, this Granger Collection print transports viewers back to an important moment in American history while simultaneously offering glimpses into daily life during that period. It is truly a timeless piece that sparks curiosity and reflection for those who appreciate art intertwined with historical significance.
