EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1900 and 1910, showcases Broughton Street in Savannah, Georgia, USA, looking east. The image, from the vast collection of the Library of Congress, transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the urban landscape of the early 20th century. Broughton Street, a major commercial thoroughfare, is bustling with activity. The street is lined with various businesses, their signs advertising goods and services. In the foreground, a man in a suit and hat stands near an electric pole, possibly waiting for a streetcar or engaged in a conversation. Behind him, a woman in a flowing dress and hat walks along the sidewalk, her attention focused on the shop windows. The industrial era is evident in the scene, with the power lines overhead and the presence of companies such as the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company and the Savannah Gas Light Company. The architecture is a mix of old and new, with historic buildings and modern structures coexisting. The image, captured on a dry plate glass 8 x 10 in negative, showcases the rich heritage of Savannah and the United States during this period. The black and white composition adds to the timeless quality of the photograph, inviting us to reflect on the past and the changes that have occurred over the decades.
