EDITORS COMMENTS
**A Chaotic Scene Unfolds in Central Park**
In this striking photograph taken between c1910 and c1915, a New York City automobile lies wrecked on the grounds of Central Park. The scene is one of chaos and disarray, with debris scattered across the grass as passersby gather to gawk at the aftermath.
The Bain News Service's photographer captured this moment in time just moments after the accident occurred, when emotions were still running high among those involved. Note how a group of men stand nearby, their faces etched with concern and shock, while others look on from a distance.
This photograph not only provides a glimpse into life in early 20th-century New York City but also serves as a poignant reminder of the risks associated with motorized transportation during this era. The image is all the more striking given its provenance: it was taken by George Grantham Bain, one of the most renowned press photographers of his time.
This photograph has been preserved and made available through Heritage Images, offering a unique window into America's past for historians, researchers, and anyone fascinated by this pivotal moment in history.
