St. John's, the capital city, is nestled on the eastern tip of the Avalon Peninsula and is known for its unique charm and colorful heritage. This photograph captures the essence of St. John's during an era when horse-drawn carriages were a common sight on the streets, and the bustling harbor was the lifeblood of the community. 4. Scene: The photograph reveals a panoramic view of St. John's, with the city's iconic harbor and the rugged coastline of Labrador in the background. The hillside is dotted with red-roofed houses, each one unique in its design, and the winding streets that connect them. The Cathedral, with its grandeur and majesty, stands as a testament to the city's rich history and religious heritage. 5. Significance: This photograph is a precious reminder of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and the daily life of St. John's during the early 1900s.
