Description Colorized photo from 1943, SeptOriginal title: Passengers boarding a Greyhound bus at the bus terminalPhotographer: Esther BubleyLocation: 5th St. and Sycamore St, Cincinnati, OHThe Cincinnati station was built from 1941-1942, inside it had terrazzo floors, a restaurant, barber shop and a drug store. The Cleveland station was based off of this design. This building has been demolished however.This image was taken by a photographer named Esther Bubley, a government photographer that was placed on various assignments. Though originally she worked in the darkroom as an assistant at the Office of War Information (OWI) in Washington DC.Taking a bus during wartime was really the only way to travel. With the chaos the war brought, rubber and gasoline were rationed. So many took trips on buses, as she did. She went from location to location on a bus, and photographed a lot of people on buses. Then getting off, the city it stopped at. She captured America at an evocative time. Each time capturing a slice of life.She achieved many awards capturing images like these.
Mike Savad, Westfield, NJ Member Since August 2009 Artist Statement My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind creations. Photo realistic is what people think of first. There are many themes, flowers, porches, and local Suburban Scenes, some city, some urban. I also have many Job inspired images that cover a quite a range. If your looking for a gift for your Pharmacist, Doctor, Dentist, Lawyer, Barber, Gardner, Fireman etc, there should be something there for you. These will look very nice hanging on your wall, or in a waiting room, even a hotel room. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance.
