EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling streets of New York City in the roaring 1910s, as captured in this stunning photograph of the Rivoli Cinema on Broadway at 49th Street. The classical, neoclassical facade of the building stands proudly against the backdrop of the urban landscape, its intricate details a testament to the architectural grandeur of the era. The pediment, adorned with an elaborate frieze, supports a stately pillar, its fluted Doric columns reaching skyward. The pavement in front of the cinema is filled with a lively crowd, their silhouettes adding a sense of energy and excitement to the scene. At the marquee, the film "Headin South," starring the legendary Douglas Fairbanks, is proudly advertised. Fairbanks, a pioneer of American cinema, brought a unique blend of athleticism and charm to the silent screen, making him a favorite among audiences of the time. The Rivoli Cinema, with its grandeur and glamour, was the perfect venue to showcase his talent. This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of the past that continues to captivate and inspire. The Rivoli Cinema, with its timeless beauty and rich history, stands as a reminder of the enduring allure of the silver screen and the magic of the movies.
