EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Arnold Genthe between 1931 and 1938, showcases a serene and misty scene in Central Park, New York City. The image transports us back in time to the 1930s, a period of significant change and growth in America. The iconic city skyline can be seen in the background, with its towering buildings reaching for the sky, while the foreground is dominated by the tranquil waters of Central Park Lake. Central Park, a public green space in the heart of New York City, has long been a source of inspiration for artists and photographers. In this image, we see a group of ducks swimming in the lake, adding a touch of natural beauty to the urban landscape. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of Central Park as a refuge from the hustle and bustle of city life. Arnold Genthe, a renowned photographer of the 20th century, captured this scene using a nitrate negative, a photographic process popular during this time. The resulting image is rich in contrast and detail, with the misty morning adding an ethereal quality to the scene. The photograph is now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, a repository of American heritage and culture. This image is a reminder of the beauty and diversity of America's geographical features, and the importance of preserving our history through the art of photography. Whether you're a fan of American history, photography, or simply appreciate the beauty of nature, this photograph is sure to inspire and captivate.
