EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to 19th century New Orleans, showcasing the grandeur of the city's architecture and its rich cultural heritage. The image features two prominent landmarks: New Orleans University and the Jewish Orphan Home. New Orleans University, a symbol of education and enlightenment, stands tall with its magnificent facade. Its elegant design speaks volumes about the importance placed on knowledge during that era. Adjacent to it is the Jewish Orphan Home, an institution dedicated to providing care for those in need. This building exudes a sense of warmth and compassion as it opens its doors to vulnerable children. The photographer skillfully captures these structures against a backdrop that hints at bustling streets filled with life and activity. The monochromatic palette adds depth and nostalgia to this historic scene, transporting viewers into another time. This photograph was originally featured in a booklet entitled "New Orleans" published by A Wittemann around 1896. It serves as both a visual documentation of architectural marvels from yesteryears and a testament to the diverse communities that thrived within this vibrant city. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of New Orleans' enduring spirit - one that embraces history while continuously evolving towards progress.
