EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "NYC: FIFTH AVENUE, 1939" takes us back to the bustling streets of New York City in the early days. The image captures a vibrant scene on 5th Avenue near 44th Street, frozen in time by photographer Dorothea Lange in July 1939. In this snapshot of urban life, we see a multitude of pedestrians navigating their way through the city's busy streets. Men dressed in suits walk briskly alongside an unidentified boy who appears lost in thought. Cars line up along the avenue, creating a symphony of honking horns and traffic noise. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the energy and diversity that has always characterized New York City. It offers a glimpse into daily life during this era - people going about their business amidst towering buildings and storefronts adorned with signs for various establishments. Dorothea Lange's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate not only the architectural grandeur but also the human element within this street scene. Each person seems engrossed in their own world as they navigate through the hustle and bustle. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Granger Collection, it serves as a reminder that while times may change, certain aspects of city life remain constant - its vibrancy, its movement, and its ability to captivate those who wander its streets.
