EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the vibrant streets of New Orleans in 1938. The image showcases Canal Street, one of the city's most iconic thoroughfares, bustling with activity under the enchanting glow of neon lights. Amidst this lively scene stands a Walgreens Drug Store, its storefront adorned with vintage signage that adds to the nostalgic charm. The focal point of this snapshot is undoubtedly the streetcar gracefully gliding along its tracks. A symbol of historic transportation, it epitomizes an era when trolleys were an integral part of daily life in American cities. As we peer into this captured moment, we can almost hear the clanging bells and feel the energy pulsating through these Southern streets. Photographer John Coletti skillfully captures both motion and stillness within this frame. The blurred movement of people passing by on foot contrasts with the stationary facade of Walgreens Drug Store, creating a sense of dynamism frozen in time. This photograph invites us to step into a bygone era and immerse ourselves in the rich history and culture that define New Orleans. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, certain elements endure - like Canal Street itself - standing as witnesses to a city's past while continuing to shape its present identity.
