EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting essence of a misty night in lower Manhattan, circa 1913. Taken from a high angle, the viewer is treated to a mesmerizing view looking northwards, with iconic landmarks piercing through the ethereal haze. The Singer Building stands tall and proud, its grandeur illuminated by the city lights. Alongside it, the Woolworth Building commands attention with its majestic presence. Completing this architectural trio is the Municipal Building, adding to the urban tapestry that defines New York City. The atmosphere in this image is palpable; one can almost feel the cool mist swirling around them as they gaze upon this nocturnal scene. The skyscrapers seem to reach for infinity against an ink-black sky dotted with twinkling stars. This photograph not only showcases early 20th-century American architecture but also encapsulates the spirit of progress and ambition that defined this era. It serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time while still retaining their unique charm. Preserved by Hassler's lens and now held within the esteemed collection of New-York Historical Society, this print allows us to travel back in time and immerse ourselves in an atmospheric moment frozen forever. It invites us to appreciate both the beauty of human ingenuity and nature's ability to envelop even our most towering achievements in misty wonderment.
