1914

A vivid and dynamic painting titled 'Subway Riders in NYC' by F. Luis Mora, created in 1914, capturing the bustling energy of early 20th-century New York City. The painting showcases a diverse group of passengers aboard a subway car, each absorbed in their own activities. Men and women of various ages and attire reflect the city's social diversity. Some passengers are engrossed in newspapers, others in conversation, while a few are lost in thought. The interior of the subway car is detailed, with overhead straps and wooden seats, evoking the era's public transport style. Mora's use of light and shadow brings depth to the scene, highlighting the expressions and interactions of the riders. The painting is a snapshot of urban life, portraying the everyday commute as a microcosm of the bustling city.
