EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant streets of New Orleans in 1938. The focus of the image is Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre, a charming theater located at the intersection of Chartres and St. Peter Streets in the heart of the French Quarter. Standing proudly opposite the Upper Pontalba Building, this historic theatre exudes elegance with its ornate wrought iron balcony railing and shuttered windows. Photographed by Frances Benjamin Johnston, an American photographer known for her early 20th-century documentation of architecture and gardens, this image captures a moment frozen in time. The corner location allows us to glimpse both sides of these iconic buildings, showcasing their unique architectural features. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost hear the sounds of jazz music drifting through the air from nearby clubs and feel the energy that permeates every corner of this city. It serves as a reminder that New Orleans has always been a hub for culture and entertainment. The Granger Collection has expertly preserved this piece of history through their art on demand collection, allowing us to appreciate not only Johnston's skillful composition but also gain insight into New Orleans' rich cultural heritage.
