Memphis - Main Street, 1890 - A Glimpse into the Vibrant Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Memphis in 1890. The image showcases a vibrant cityscape, with Main Street at its heart. Amidst the cobblestone roads and charming storefronts, our attention is immediately drawn to a wagon loaded with cotton making its way through the crowd. As we delve deeper into this snapshot of history, we notice an African American boy wearing a bowler hat standing near the wagon. His presence serves as a reminder of the diverse community that thrived in Memphis during this era. The photograph captures late 19th-century life in exquisite detail; from horse-drawn carriages and trams navigating through traffic to telephone wires crisscrossing above. It paints a vivid picture of daily life on Main Street – where commerce and transportation intersected seamlessly. The Granger Collection has expertly preserved this turn-of-the-century scene for us to admire today. Through their lens, we are transported back in time, able to appreciate not only the architectural beauty but also glimpse into the lives of those who inhabited these streets over a century ago. This print is more than just an image; it's an invitation to explore Memphis' rich history and immerse ourselves in its vibrant past.
