EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph takes us back to the bustling streets of New York City in 1898. The image captures Greeley Square, a vibrant urban hub located at the intersection of Broadway and 34th Street. As we gaze upon this historic scene, we are transported to an era when rail travel was at its peak. The elevated railroad dominates the composition, stretching across the frame with its intricate ironwork and towering structures. This innovative mode of public transport revolutionized city life, connecting people from all walks of life as they hurriedly made their way through the metropolis. The street below is teeming with activity - horse-drawn carriages navigate through traffic while pedestrians scurry along the sidewalks. The energy of this thriving cityscape is palpable; it's a snapshot frozen in time that encapsulates the essence of turn-of-the-century America. As our eyes wander further into the distance, we catch glimpses of iconic landmarks such as Macy's department store and other grand buildings that define New York City's architectural landscape. This lithograph serves as a testament to both American ingenuity and artistic skill. Through meticulous engraving techniques, every detail has been meticulously captured – from the texture on each building facade to even individual figures dotting the streetscape. In this monochrome masterpiece, Bridgeman Images invites us to step into history and marvel at a bygone era where railroads ruled supreme and New York City was just beginning its ascent towards becoming "the Big Apple.
