EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the vibrant atmosphere of Easter Sunday in Manhattan's iconic Fifth Avenue on April 9th, 1911. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era as fashionable ladies and gentlemen parade down the avenue, adorned with elaborate bonnets and bowler hats. The scene is alive with energy as horse-drawn carriages share space with motorcars, while pedestrians weave in and out of the crowd.
The Easter Parade, also known as the Sunday morning Fifth Avenue Easter bonnet stroll, was a beloved tradition that drew people from all walks of life to showcase their most elaborate headgear. On this particular spring day, ladies wear stunning hats adorned with feathers, flowers, and lace while gentlemen sport top hats and bowlers. The atmosphere is festive and lively, filled with the sounds of laughter and chatter.
This photograph was taken by George Grantham Bain's news service in 1911, providing a unique glimpse into the fashion trends and social norms of early 20th-century America. It serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of Easter celebrations on Fifth Avenue, which continue to captivate audiences today.
