EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "St. Louis Cathedral from Jackson Square, New Orleans, between 1920 and 1926," captures the iconic St. Louis Cathedral standing proudly against the backdrop of Jackson Square in New Orleans during the 1920s. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, this image showcases the architectural beauty and historical significance of this Roman Catholic Church. The St. Louis Cathedral, a masterpiece of Gothic Revival and Spanish Colonial architecture, is bathed in the soft glow of a street lamp, casting an ethereal light on its intricately designed facade. The cathedral's neo-Gothic entrance, adorned with intricate carvings and a wrought-iron gate, adds to its grandeur. The image also highlights the lush greenery of the surrounding trees and plants, providing a stark contrast to the stone structure. The photograph also captures the daily life of the city, with the cathedral serving as a focal point for the community. The image shows the cathedral's entrance, where people can be seen entering and exiting, and the street lamp illuminating the pathway. The trees and plants in the park add a touch of nature to the urban landscape, making it a serene and peaceful setting. Arnold Genthe's photograph is a testament to the rich heritage and history of New Orleans and the United States as a whole. The image is a still from a nitrate negative, which adds to its historical significance as a piece of early 20th-century photography. The St. Louis Cathedral, a symbol of faith and community, continues to be an enduring symbol of New Orleans and the Southern United States, and this photograph captures its timeless beauty and charm.
