EDITORS COMMENTS
Shipping fish by horse-drawn vehicle from Fulton fish market, New York, 1943. This photograph captured by Gordon Parks takes us back to a simpler time in America's history. In the midst of the bustling cityscape of New York City, we witness an age-old tradition of transporting goods through horse-drawn vehicles. The image showcases the vibrant energy of the Fulton fish market as crates upon crates of fresh seafood are loaded onto a cart pulled by majestic horses. The dedication and hard work involved in delivering these essential food items to people across the country is evident in every detail. Gordon Parks skillfully captures this moment with his camera lens, freezing it in time for future generations to appreciate. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to the composition, emphasizing both the strength and fragility of this timeless trade. As we gaze at this remarkable still image, we are transported back to an era when transportation relied on horsepower rather than engines. It serves as a reminder that progress may change our methods but cannot diminish our appreciation for tradition and heritage. This photograph stands as a testament not only to Gordon Parks' artistic talent but also to the enduring spirit of American industry and ingenuity.
