拍品專文

In the 1870s and 1880s, when restaurants closed at 8 p.m., inventive vendors in Providence, Rhode Island, and Worcester, Massachusetts, created wagons to serve hot food and drinks as a "night lunch" for those working overnight. In 1893, the Church Temperance Society in New York City closed their coffee houses to focus on night lunch wagons, and they soon expanded around the city. Many of these early horse-drawn food trucks were given nocturnal-themed names, such as The Owl seen on the side of the wagon in the present work. Amidst the glowing lights, Shinn shares a glimpse of the Madison Square Garden tower at upper right.
