EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Street scene in the French Quarter, New Orleans, between 1920 and 1926," captures a moment in time in the historic heart of New Orleans, Louisiana, during the 1920s. Taken by renowned German-American photographer Arnold Genthe, this image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the city, showcasing a bustling urban scene filled with a diverse mix of people, animals, and architecture. In the foreground, a man in a white shirt and suspenders stands next to a horse-drawn wagon, while a mule-drawn waggon and a car with a man at the wheel can be seen in the background. Several men, some wearing hats and others bare-headed, walk along the sidewalk, their faces expressing a range of emotions. A woman in a long, flowing dress and a young boy in shorts and a cap add to the vibrant scene. The buildings in the background, with their ornate facades and wrought-iron balconies, are a testament to the city's unique architectural heritage. The image is a nitrate negative, a type of photographic film that was commonly used in the early 20th century. It is now part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress in Washington D.C., a testament to the enduring value of Genthe's work as a chronicler of American life during the 1920s.
