EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe between 1920 and 1926, transports us back in time to the charming and enigmatic streets of either New Orleans, Louisiana, or Charleston, South Carolina. The image showcases a narrow, dimly lit passageway, flanked by quaint, weathered buildings with intricate architectural details. The passageway's worn steps, leading up to the doors of the houses, suggest the passage of time and the daily life of the community. The scene is reminiscent of the Southern United States in the 1920s, a period marked by tradition, heritage, and the unique character of its cities. The buildings, with their ornate facades and faded colors, bear witness to the rich history of the region. The passageway, shrouded in shadows, adds an element of mystery and intrigue, inviting us to explore the hidden corners of these historic cities. This photograph, part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, is a testament to the power of still images to transport us to another time and place. The nitrate negative, a relic of the past, has captured the essence of a moment in history, offering us a glimpse into the daily life and architectural heritage of the Southern United States during the 1920s.
