EDITORS COMMENTS
Dewey Triumphal Arch and Colonnade, Madison Square, New York City, NY (circa 1899) This historic photograph captures the Dewey Triumphal Arch and Colonnade, a temporary architectural marvel erected in Madison Square, New York City, in honor of Admiral George Dewey's victory at the Battle of Manila Bay in the Philippines in 1898. The classical revival structure, designed by architect Charles Lamb, was a symbol of American pride and celebration. The arch, adorned with intricate details and ornate decorations, stood tall and proud, reflecting the grandeur of the era. The triumphal arch and colonnade were a short-lived tribute to Admiral Dewey's military success. Despite the public's initial enthusiasm, the plaster structure began to deteriorate due to the elements and lack of maintenance. With public support waning, the decision was made to demolish the arch in 1900. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the architectural beauty and historical significance of this temporary structure. The Dewey Triumphal Arch and Colonnade serve as a reminder of the excitement and pride felt by Americans during this time in history, and the fleeting nature of even the grandest of achievements. This image is a testament to the power of architecture to commemorate historical events and evoke emotions, even if the structures themselves are not permanent. The Dewey Triumphal Arch and Colonnade may no longer exist, but their legacy lives on through photographs like this one.
