EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic Grants Tomb on Riverside Drive in New York City. Taken by G. P. Hall & Son between 1876 and 1914, this historical image is now part of the collection at the New-York Historical Society. Grants Tomb serves as a memorial to General Ulysses S. Grant, who was not only a Union Commander during the American Civil War but also served as the 18th President of the United States. The mausoleum stands tall amidst a picturesque landscape, surrounded by parkland that invites cyclists to pedal through its thoroughfare. The photograph beautifully showcases both the architectural grandeur of Grants Tomb and its serene surroundings in Manhattan's bustling cityscape. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era when cycling was gaining popularity as a sport, with cyclists captured in motion near this commemorative site. As we admire this snapshot from the early 20th century, it reminds us of how sportsmanship and outdoor activities have long been cherished pastimes for people seeking respite from urban life. This image encapsulates both history and leisure, inviting us to appreciate the beauty of Grant's Tomb while reflecting on our own connection to sport and recreation in modern times.
