In the lecture, she delves into the stark contrast between the extravagant lifestyles of the wealthy and the challenging, often invisible existence of the servants who maintained their lavish homes. Through vivid narratives and historical details, Esther Crain sheds light on the social dynamics, daily routines, and personal stories of those who worked "below the stairs," offering a unique perspective on this transformative period in New York City's history.
