EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the third floor Hall of the New York Public Library, located on Manhattan Island in New York City, between 1911 and 1920. The image, taken during the 1910s or 1920s, showcases the Beaux-Arts architecture of the library, which was designed to inspire awe and provide a sanctuary for knowledge seekers. The Hall, with its high ceilings, ornate details, and large windows, is a testament to the importance of education and the beauty of classical design. The photograph was likely taken using a dry plate negative or glass negative process, popular during this time period. The image is a national historic landmark and a significant part of the country's architectural heritage. The third floor of the New York Public Library, also known as the Main Reading Room, was a popular destination for scholars, writers, and students, and the room's tranquil atmosphere and impressive collection of books made it a cherished space for many. The photograph's creator is unknown, but it is believed that it may have been taken by Edwin H. Husser or William A. Livingstone, both of whom were known for their work documenting the city's architecture during this time period. This photograph is a valuable historical record of a time when the New York Public Library was a beacon of knowledge and culture in the United States.
