EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "High Steel Worker In NY" takes us back to the bustling city of New York in 1917. The image captures a moment from the Fox Film, The Pride Of New York, showcasing a fearless construction worker perched on a girder high above the ground. With his caucasian appearance and intense focus, he epitomizes the determination and resilience of workers during that era. The monochromatic aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this historic scene. Against the backdrop of towering skyscrapers, this brave individual fearlessly navigates girders with precision and skill. It serves as a reminder of the dangerous nature of their work but also highlights their unwavering commitment to building magnificent structures that define urban landscapes. This vintage photograph not only offers a glimpse into early 20th-century America but also pays homage to the film industry's role in capturing such moments for posterity. As one male figure stands alone amidst steel beams and open skies, it symbolizes both solitude and strength. Preserved by Underwood Archives from Universal Images Group (UIG), this remarkable image transports us back in time while celebrating the unsung heroes who contributed to shaping cities like New York into what they are today.
