Marble Hall of the Custom House, New Orleans, between 1920 and 1926: A Timeless Testament to Neoclassical Architecture This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking Marble Hall of the Custom House in New Orleans, Louisiana, between 1920 and 1926. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, this image is a testament to the enduring beauty and grandeur of this historic building. The Marble Hall, a stunning example of Neoclassical architecture, was a symbol of the city's rich heritage and financial prowess during the 1920s. Its intricately carved marble columns and pillars, adorned with elaborate designs and ornate capitals, create an awe-inspiring interior that transports us back in time. The Custom House, which served as the city's main federal building, was a hub of activity during this era. This photograph, taken during the twenties, captures the hall in its full glory, with the soft light filtering through the large windows, casting intriguing shadows on the marble floor. Genthe's masterful use of nitrate negatives adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing the contrast between the light and dark areas, and bringing out the intricate details of the marble. The result is a captivating still image that showcases the beauty and elegance of this historic building. Today, the Marble Hall stands as a reminder of New Orleans' rich cultural heritage and the architectural marvels of the past. This photograph, taken by Arnold Genthe, serves as a visual record of this iconic building and a tribute to the artistry and craftsmanship of a bygone era.
