EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of 1859 New York City. Captured by William England, a renowned photographer from the London Stereoscopic Company, this image showcases Whitehall Street and Bowling Green in all its historic glory. In the foreground, we see a square coach and horses carriage navigating through the commotion of pedestrians and other vehicles. The atmosphere is filled with energy as people go about their daily routines against the backdrop of Trinity Church's majestic spire to the north. The composition of this photograph perfectly encapsulates an American view during that era. With its sharp contrasts and monochromatic tones, it transports us to a time when horse-drawn carriages were a common mode of transportation on these busy city streets. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at how much has changed since then. Yet, there is also a sense of familiarity as some elements still resonate with modern-day New York City. This remarkable piece captures not only the essence of Whitehall Street but also serves as a testament to William England's artistic talent. It allows us to appreciate both his technical skill in capturing such intricate details and his ability to transport viewers into another era through photography.
