EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'Street corner, New Orleans, between 1920 and 1926,' captures the essence of a bygone era in American history. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image transports us back to the vibrant streets of New Orleans during the 1920s. The scene unfolds at a bustling street corner, where the architectural grandeur of the buildings is on full display. Ornate balconies with intricate railings adorn the facades of the houses, their wooden frames weathered by time. The buildings seem to lean inwards, as if in a friendly embrace, creating an intimate urban landscape. A cigar store, with its distinctive sign and tobacco leaves, occupies one corner, adding to the sensory experience of the image. The pavement is filled with activity, as people go about their daily business, some stopping to chat or smoke a cigar. The contrast between the dark buildings and the white balconies, as well as the shadows cast by the buildings, add depth and texture to the image. This photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of New Orleans and the United States during the 1920s. It invites us to imagine the sounds, smells, and sights of the city during that era, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical images.
