EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Graphic America, Barbers Saloon, New York" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century New York City. Created by Arthur Boyd Houghton in 1870, this print captures a scene of male grooming at its finest. The image showcases a lively barbershop filled with men engaged in various stages of their grooming routines. The attention to detail is remarkable as you can almost feel the energy and camaraderie within the space. From shaving to haircuts, each barber is diligently attending to his client's needs. New York City's vibrant atmosphere is palpable through this artwork. The hustle and bustle outside the saloon window hint at the fast-paced nature of urban life during that era. This engraving provides a glimpse into an important aspect of daily life for men in this time period – visiting their local barbershop for a trim or shave was not only about personal grooming but also served as a social gathering spot. As we admire this historical piece, it transports us back in time and allows us to appreciate both the artistry involved in creating such engravings and the cultural significance they hold. It serves as a reminder that even everyday scenes from centuries ago can still captivate our imagination today.
