Sobre este artículo
We date this image to the later portion of Knowlton's output, as the electricity lines in the photograph are fairly developed. The lower part of Manhattan was first electrified in 1882 by Edison with the opening of Pearl Street Station. The corner street lamp appears to be an electric arc lamp, perhaps by Brush. A fascinating NYC street scene at a time when the city was transforming from horse and buggy to (soon) automobiles. We haven't been able to trace any other examples of this image.
