EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment on Riverside Drive in New York City. Taken on Grants Memorial Day, April 27,1897, the image showcases a scene filled with patriotic fervor and reverence for the former President Ulysses S. Grant. The photograph transports us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the bustling metropolis of late 19th century America. The streets are lined with people from all walks of life, eagerly awaiting the parade that will honor one of their nation's greatest leaders. The composition is rich in detail, allowing us to observe both grand architectural structures and everyday city life. From horse-drawn carriages to men in top hats and women adorned in elegant dresses, every element tells its own story within this historical tableau. As we delve deeper into the image's context, we discover that it was originally published as an illustration for "The New Metropolis" edited by E Idell Zeisloft in 1899. This publication aimed to showcase the vibrant spirit of New York City during this transformative period. Preserved through time and now part of a private collection, this photograph serves as a reminder of our shared history and the enduring legacy left behind by great figures like Ulysses S. Grant. It invites us to reflect upon our past while appreciating how far we have come as Americans united under one flag.
