EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in New York City's history. Taken during the Dewey Parade on Fifth Avenue in 1938, it showcases General Roe and his esteemed staff on horseback, leading a grand procession through the heart of Manhattan. The image exudes an air of military splendor as the riders proudly march down the iconic avenue. The crowd lining both sides of the street eagerly watches this impressive display of power and authority. The horses, majestic creatures with their heads held high, add to the overall sense of strength and dignity. Byron Company, known for their exceptional photography skills during this era, expertly captured this scene using silver gelatin print techniques. Their attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this composition – from the crispness of each rider's uniform to the subtle shadows cast by passing clouds overhead. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era when parades were grand spectacles that brought communities together. It serves as a reminder not only of our city's rich history but also of our collective spirit as Americans. Displayed at the Museum of the City of New York, this photograph stands as a testament to our enduring fascination with moments that shape our nation's identity.
