Monday

Sometimes it seems important to be removed from one’s comfort zone and made to confront something completely different: so this week on the Post turn of the (last) century images of Hester Street in New York. This was inspired by this unmissable video of the boat arriving and immigrants starting life in the New World: six minutes in there is  footage of the Hester Street fish market. This photograph of the street, looking West from Essex Street, is available as a print.
