The electric age was born in 1882 on Pearl Street in Lower Manhattan when Thomas Edison began operating the city’s first central power station. One jumbo dynamo helped generate enough direct current to power 800 light bulbs, and within a year Edison’s company had more than 500 customers.

Bust of Antinous, the favorite of Hadrian, in Egyptian royal headdress. Roman, early second century AD, with restorations. Avignon, Musée Calvet, on loan from the Louvre
