EDITORS COMMENTS
NEW YORK: BLIZZARD OF 1888. A Glimpse into the Frozen Past. This print takes us back to the historic Blizzard of 1888, capturing a moment frozen in time on 14th Street between 5th and 6th Avenues in New York City. As we peer westward through the lens of this remarkable image, we are transported to an era where winter's icy grip held Lower Manhattan tightly. The aftermath of the blizzard is evident as snow blankets every surface, transforming bustling streets into quiet pathways. The towering piles of snow frame the sidewalks, creating a surreal landscape that seems almost otherworldly. Amidst this wintry scene stands a sign defiantly pointing "This Way to Canada" perhaps teasing those weary from shoveling their way out or simply adding whimsy to an otherwise harsh reality. The photograph captures not only the physical impact of nature's fury but also reveals glimpses into daily life during this challenging time. It serves as a testament to human resilience as people navigate through knee-deep snowdrifts and brave freezing temperatures while going about their business. Preserved by The Granger Collection, this snapshot provides us with a fascinating glimpse into one of New York City's most notorious blizzards. It reminds us that even amidst adversity and extreme weather conditions, life goes on – leaving behind indelible imprints for future generations.
