EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken around 1912 by William Davis Hassler, we are transported back in time to witness a charming moment of everyday life. The image showcases young William Gray Hassler seated at a small table, fully engrossed in enjoying his breakfast - a bowl of Quaker puffed rice cereal. With an innocent smile on his face, the boy epitomizes the joy and simplicity of childhood. His eyes sparkle with delight as he savors each spoonful of the crispy cereal. This snapshot beautifully captures a fleeting moment of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle of daily routines. The composition is strikingly intimate, focusing solely on William's portrait as he sits comfortably at the table. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the image, emphasizing every detail from his tousled hair to his delicate features. This photograph not only serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times but also highlights the significance of breakfast as an essential meal for growing children. It reminds us that even in our fast-paced modern world, taking time to savor our meals can bring immense pleasure and contentment. Preserved within the collection of New-York Historical Society, this timeless piece invites us to reflect upon our own cherished memories while appreciating both artistry and history captured through photography.
