EDITORS COMMENTS
NEW YORK: RETIREMENT HOME. A glimpse into the late 19th century retirement home for elderly Jewish men and women in New York. This drawing by W. A. Rogers, created in 1891, offers a nostalgic window into the past. In this charming scene, we see a serene park setting with benches occupied by elderly residents enjoying their leisurely moments. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he captures the essence of this community - from the caretaker tending to their needs to the gentle smoke rising from pipes held by contented gentlemen. This snapshot of turn-of-the-century life showcases not only the architectural beauty of the retirement home but also highlights the rich cultural heritage shared among its inhabitants. It serves as a reminder that even in old age, these individuals found solace and companionship within their own community. The Granger Collection has preserved this historical gem, allowing us to appreciate and reflect upon an era long gone. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time, appreciating both the progress made since then and cherishing our connection to those who came before us. Let this image serve as a tribute to all those who have paved the way for us today – reminding us of our collective responsibility to care for our elders while honoring their unique stories.
