EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Astor Street in Chicago during the early 1900s, as captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. The vintage photograph presents a tranquil scene of the picturesque street, lined with elegant Victorian and Edwardian houses, their facades adorned with intricate details and ornate decorations. The quaint street lamps, with their tall, slender frames and glass globes, cast a warm, inviting glow over the cobblestone road. The image transports us to a bygone era, where horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians were the primary means of transportation. The women in long, flowing dresses and men in suits and hats add to the sense of timelessness. In the foreground, a man can be seen carrying a lantern, likely making his way home after a long day's work. The photograph's muted colors and soft focus further enhance the dreamlike quality of the scene. Astor Street, located in the Gold Coast neighborhood of Chicago, was once known for its affluent residents and grand homes. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history and charm of the area, providing a window into the past and a reminder of the beauty and elegance of a bygone era. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of the past and the power of photography to preserve and transport us to different times and places.
