EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in the history of New York City. Taken on August 6,1916, it showcases the Evangelist Committee at Pell Street, an iconic location that witnessed a gathering of devout men. The image portrays a crowd of individuals standing in the street, united by their faith and commitment to spreading the message of evangelism. The aerial view allows us to appreciate the magnitude of this congregation as they come together for Bible study and religious discussions. Each man's presence signifies his dedication to their shared beliefs and highlights the power of community in shaping religious practices. The photo is a testament to William Davis Hassler's skillful photography, capturing not only faces but also emotions within this snapshot frozen in time. It serves as a reminder that religion has always played an integral role in American society, particularly during this era marked by spiritual revival. Preserved by the New-York Historical Society, this print offers us insight into early 20th-century Manhattan life and its diverse religious landscape. As we gaze upon these earnest faces filled with conviction, we are reminded of how faith can bring people together despite differences. This photograph encapsulates both historical significance and artistic beauty while serving as a visual representation of devotion and unity among evangelists on Pell Street over a century ago.
