This classic urban landscape showcases the striking boundary between nature and commerce in mid-century Boston. The view looks down Boylston Street, where a row of imposing commercial buildings and vintage automobiles contrast with the lush, shaded edge of the Boston Common. Boston Common is the oldest public park in the United States. The warm, sunset-hued sky in the background adds a dramatic flair to this snapshot of 1940s city life.
