EDITORS COMMENTS
This photochrom print, dated around 1900, showcases the exterior of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, located in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. The church, a significant landmark of American religious history, is bathed in warm tones, with the red brick facade and intricate architectural details standing out against the vibrant green foliage that surrounds it. The First Church of Christ, Scientist, is a prominent example of the Christian Science movement, which emerged in the late 19th century. Founded by Mary Baker Eddy, this denomination emphasizes the healing power of prayer and the study of the Bible. The Boston Mother Church, as it is also known, was designed by architects Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge and serves as the international headquarters of the Christian Science organization. This stunning photomechanical print, produced by Detroit Publishing Company (not to be confused with the Detroit Publishing Co.), was likely created for promotional or travel purposes, showcasing the architectural and historical significance of the church. The print is now part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical value. The image, captured by an unknown photographer, invites us to take a moment to appreciate the rich heritage and history of this unique religious institution. The tranquil outdoor setting, with its lush greenery and clear blue sky, adds to the serene and contemplative atmosphere of the scene.
