EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the bustling streets of New York City in the early 1900s. The image captures a view of Hotel Kensington, an architectural gem located at Fifth Avenue, near Washington Square. Standing tall amidst the vibrant cityscape of Greenwich Village, this elegant building exudes grandeur and charm. In the foreground, pedestrians can be seen strolling along the sidewalk, their fashionable attire reflecting the fashion trends of that era. A horse-drawn carriage passes by, adding a touch of nostalgia to this snapshot from another time. The corner location of Hotel Kensington allows for a glimpse into multiple perspectives - both down Fifth Avenue and across intersecting streets. The silver gelatin print technique used by photographer Byron Company beautifully captures every intricate detail and texture on display. This exquisite piece is now preserved within the Museum of the City of New York's collection, allowing viewers to appreciate its historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are transported back to an era known as the Gilded Age when opulence reigned supreme in Manhattan. It serves as a reminder not only of how much has changed over time but also how certain elements endure - like New Yorkers' unwavering spirit and love for their beloved city.
