EDITORS COMMENTS
Old Schuyler Mansion, Albany, New York, between 1900 and 1910. This stunning photograph captures the Old Schuyler Mansion in Albany, New York, during the early 20th century. The mansion, now a National Historic Site, was originally built in the late 17th century and was the home of Philip Schuyler, a major general in the Continental Army and a key figure in American history. By the turn of the 20th century, the mansion had been repurposed as the St. Francis DeSales Asylum, an orphanage run by the Sisters of Charity. The gate in the photograph bears the inscription "St. Francis DeSales Asylum," reflecting its new role as a place of care and shelter for children. The photograph was taken using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in process, and the image is filled with intricate details. The mansion's facade is adorned with intricate brickwork and ornate columns, while the gate and stairs leading up to the entrance add a sense of grandeur and elegance. The children playing on the steps add a touch of warmth and humanity to the image, making it a poignant reminder of the past. This photograph is a valuable historical record of a significant building in American history and a testament to the rich heritage of Albany, New York. The Old Schuyler Mansion continues to stand as a symbol of the city's storied past and a reminder of the important role that historic buildings play in shaping our collective memory.
