EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured between 1920 and 1926 by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe, presents an intriguing tableau of the Sisters of Charity making their way through the grand gateway of the Armory in New Orleans, Louisiana. The image transports us back to the 1920s in the United States, a time of great change and progress. The Sisters of Charity, dressed in their traditional habits, are seen walking purposefully towards the imposing entrance of the Armory, their determined expressions contrasting with the ornate and decorative architectural details of the gateway. The Armory, a historic military building, stands proudly in the background, its facade adorned with columns, arches, and intricate carvings. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, revealing the rich cultural and historical heritage of New Orleans and the United States. The Sisters of Charity, an order of Catholic sisters, have been serving the community in New Orleans since the late 18th century, and their presence here adds an extra layer of significance to the scene. Arnold Genthe, a pioneer in the use of nitrate negatives, was known for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects and the mood of the moment. This photograph is a testament to his skill, showcasing the Sisters of Charity in their daily routine, while also highlighting the architectural grandeur of the Armory. The image is a valuable addition to the collections of the Library of Congress, a repository of the nation's rich cultural heritage. It invites us to reflect on the past, and to appreciate the beauty and complexity of American history.
