NEW YORK - BLIZZARD OF 1888 - A Glimpse into the Winter Wonderland of the Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white wood engraving, taken from a contemporary newspaper, transports us back to the blizzard that paralyzed New York City from 12th to 14th March in 1888. The scene captured is nothing short of mesmerizing as it showcases the sheer power and beauty of nature's wrath. The image depicts a snow-covered city street with a bridge in the background, revealing an almost surreal winter landscape. Men can be seen braving through knee-deep snow, their figures blending seamlessly with the monochromatic surroundings. The late evening light casts long shadows on Harlem's North side, adding an ethereal touch to this historical snapshot. As we gaze upon this frozen tableau, we are reminded of both the resilience and vulnerability of humanity when faced with extreme weather conditions. It serves as a testament to our ability to adapt and overcome adversity throughout history. The Granger Collection has masterfully preserved this piece of American history for us all to appreciate today. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come since that fateful blizzard over a century ago. Let this artwork serve as a reminder that even amidst chaos and uncertainty, there is always beauty waiting to be discovered if we take the time to look closely enough.
