This photo provided by the New-York Historical Society shows the photographer Bill Cunningham's muse Editta Sherman dressed in a Victorian period costume, on the train to a photo shoot at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden in 1972, in New York. The photo is one of 88 prints from Bill Cunningham’s 1976-1978 project, “Facades,” featured in an exhibition at the New-York Historical Society, running through June 15, 2014. The images are a whimsical photo essay in which Cunningham posed models in period costumes against famous New York City historic sites of the same vintage. Cunningham and Sherman, a celebrity photographer of famous artists and musicians who died at age 101 last year, were neighbors in the famous Carnegie Hall Studios. They often rode the subway to the various locations to avoid wrinkling the costumes. (AP Photo/New-York Historical Society, Gift of Bill Cunningham)
