EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in the bustling city of New York during the 19th century. Titled "Wheelmens Rest at the West Gate of Prospect Park" this image showcases a historical landmark that was once an oasis for weary travelers. Located in Brooklyn, Prospect Park's West Gate served as a meeting point for cyclists known as "wheelmen". In this print, we see these individuals taking respite from their journeys, surrounded by the park's serene beauty. The composition beautifully contrasts the urban landscape with nature, highlighting both man-made structures and lush greenery. The significance of this image is further emphasized by its inclusion in The New Metropolis edited by E Idell Zeisloft. Published in 1899, this book aimed to showcase various aspects of life in America's growing cities. This particular photograph exemplifies how recreational spaces like Prospect Park provided much-needed relaxation and escape from the fast-paced city life. As we delve into history through this photo print, it becomes evident that cycling culture played an important role in American society during this time period. It also serves as a reminder of how public parks have long been cherished spaces where people can find solace amidst urban chaos. Captured by an unknown American photographer from the 19th century, this image offers us a glimpse into New York City's past while reminding us of our shared human need for rest and rejuvenation within bustling metropolises like NYC.
