EDITORS COMMENTS
The New Worlds interest in the Old Worlds War, 1914 (litho) captures a bustling scene in downtown New York City during World War I. The lithograph, created by Charles Edward Dixon and part of a private collection, showcases the American perspective on the global conflict. In this image, skyscrapers dominate the city skyline as thousands of New Yorkers fill the streets below. The crowd is drawn to newspaper bulletins posted outside prominent publications like The Tribune and The Sun, eagerly seeking updates on the war unfolding across the Atlantic. As America remained neutral at this time, their curiosity about "the old world's war" was driven by a mix of intrigue and concern for loved ones abroad. The energy of wartime is palpable as people gather around these bulletin boards, anxiously absorbing every piece of news that comes their way. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of how even from afar, ordinary citizens were deeply affected by events happening on distant shores. As we gaze upon this historical print today, it offers us a glimpse into an era defined by uncertainty and global upheaval. It reminds us that wars do not exist in isolation but have far-reaching consequences that resonate with people from all corners of the globe.
