EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the iconic St. Louis Cathedral in New Orleans between 1920 and 1926, as documented by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe. The image showcases the Roman Catholic Church's neo-Gothic and Spanish Colonial architecture, which stands proudly amidst the lush greenery of the surrounding trees and plants. The cathedral, a symbol of the city's rich cultural heritage, is adorned with intricate details, from its pointed arches and ornate stonework to its distinctive bell tower. The image also captures the vibrant energy of city life, with a bustling walkway leading up to the cathedral's entrance, suggesting the daily rituals and routines of the community. The photograph, taken during the 1920s, is a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of this historic landmark, which continues to be a source of inspiration and wonder for visitors from around the world. This nitrate negative, part of the Arnold Genthe collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to reflect on the intersection of architecture, religion, and daily life in America during the 20th century.
