EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "NYC: FERRIES, 1939" takes us back in time to the bustling ferry terminals on the East River at the southern tip of New York City. Captured by acclaimed photographer Dorothea Lange in July 1939, this image showcases a slice of early American life. In this snapshot, we see the exterior of these historic ferry terminals against the backdrop of a vibrant cityscape. The architectural details are striking, with grand entrances and intricate ironwork that reflect the era's design sensibilities. The photograph exudes an air of anticipation as people mill about, waiting for their turn to board one of these iconic ferries. It offers a glimpse into daily life during that period - commuters rushing to work or families embarking on weekend adventures across the river. Lange's masterful composition captures not only the physical structures but also hints at stories untold within those walls. As we study each face in this crowd frozen in time, we can't help but wonder about their dreams, aspirations, and journeys they were about to embark upon. This remarkable piece from The Granger Collection allows us to immerse ourselves in New York City's past while reminding us of its enduring spirit and constant evolution. A true testament to both Lange's talent behind the lens and our fascination with history captured through art.
