EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Central Park, N.Y. the Obelisk, c1900,' showcases an iconic landmark of Manhattan Island, New York City, United States of America. The image, captured in the early 20th century, depicts Central Park's iconic Obelisk, a monumental granite structure standing tall against the backdrop of the lush, green park. The Obelisk, officially named the Cleopatra's Needle, was originally located in Egypt before being dismantled, shipped, and reassembled in Central Park in 1881. Edwin H. Husher, an unknown photographer, captured this historic moment using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 inches. The image, now held in the Library of Congress, is a testament to the rich history and heritage of Central Park and the city of New York. The Obelisk, a symbol of ancient Egypt, stands proudly amidst the bustling cityscape, offering a glimpse into the past and the evolving urban landscape of Manhattan. The photograph, taken in the late 19th or early 20th century, is a stunning example of the architectural and historical significance of Central Park and its monuments. The black and white image, with its high contrast and intricate details, invites viewers to explore the history and allure of this iconic landmark. The image, a treasure from the past, continues to captivate and inspire, serving as a reminder of the enduring beauty and history of Central Park and the city of New York.
