EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a lively scene from late 19th century New York City. In this bustling metropolis, a German street band takes center stage on a busy sidewalk. The wood engraving, created by an American artist in 1879 after a painting by John George Brown, beautifully immortalizes this moment of musical enchantment. The image showcases an eclectic group of musicians passionately playing their instruments. A clarinetist and trumpeter harmonize with the rich tones of a trombonist and tuba player while a French horn adds depth to the melody. Their skillful performance captivates passersby who pause to listen or tap their feet along to the beat.

It serves as both a testament to artistic expression and as a reminder that music
