EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to the bustling streets of New York City, as captured by photographer Edwin Levick in this print. The year is 1915, and we find ourselves high above Times Square at night, gazing upon a mesmerizing scene that still resonates with energy and excitement. Neon-lit commercial signs and theater marquees illuminate the cityscape, creating a dazzling display that beckons passersby. On the right side of the street, marquees for iconic theaters such as Vitagraph, New York, and Palace light up the night sky. In the distance, a neon sign proudly advertises Fatima Turkish cigarettes – a reminder of an era when smoking was not only fashionable but also synonymous with sophistication. As our eyes wander through this snapshot frozen in time, we notice car headlights zigzagging due to the long exposure time required by early filmstock technology. This effect adds an ethereal quality to an already enchanting composition. Edwin Levick's masterful lens captures not just a moment but an entire era defined by its vibrant spirit. This photograph transports us back to a time when Times Square was emerging as America's entertainment hub - pulsating with life and promising endless possibilities. Immerse yourself in history with this stunning portrait photographic effect print from Fine Art Storehouse – a testament to Levick's artistry and his ability to capture both nostalgia and innovation
