EDITORS COMMENTS
St. Philip's Church, Charleston, South Carolina (1920-1926) - This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and timeless beauty of St. Philip's Church in Charleston, South Carolina, during the 1920s. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, this image transports us back in time to an era of graceful architecture and tranquil city life. The church, a prominent Neoclassical structure, stands proudly amidst its lush surroundings, its imposing portico adorned with tall, elegant columns. The intricate iron gates, a testament to the craftsmanship of the time, add an air of mystery and allure as they beckon visitors to enter. The church's simple yet striking entrance, framed by the ironwork, invites contemplation and reflection. St. Philip's Church, established in 1680, is a significant part of Charleston's rich history and cultural heritage. This photograph, taken between 1920 and 1926, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the enduring charm of this iconic building and the city it calls home. Arnold Genthe, a pioneering photographer known for his evocative images of American life, captured this still image using a nitrate negative. The resulting monochrome print, with its crisp lines and deep contrasts, highlights the architectural features of the church and the textures of its surroundings, making it a true work of art.
