EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Mrs. Hetty Green, a prominent figure of the 19th century, in her opulent apartment located in Hoboken. The image showcases the lavishness that surrounded her, with paper flowers adorning the space, an ingrain carpet underfoot, and near-oak furniture exuding elegance. These elements serve as tangible evidence of Mrs. Green's immense wealth. The photographer skillfully portrays Mrs. Green amidst this luxurious setting, highlighting her status as a woman of great affluence during this time period. Interestingly, she was also subject to much attention from New York tax assessors due to her considerable fortune. This image was originally featured in Valentines Manual of Old New York in 1921 and is now part of a private collection. It offers viewers a glimpse into the life of one of America's wealthiest individuals at that time. As we observe this snapshot from history, we are reminded not only of Mrs. Hetty Green's remarkable wealth but also the stark contrast between social classes during this era in American history. This photograph serves as a testament to both the opulence enjoyed by some and the struggles faced by others within society.
