EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of Gallier Hall, also known as New Orleans City Hall. Taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1938, this print showcases the neoclassical architecture that defined the city's landscape for decades. The focus of the image is on the portico of Gallier Hall, which stands proudly on Lafayette Square in New Orleans, Louisiana. The hall served as the city's administrative center from its dedication in 1853 until the 1950s. Its impressive exterior features a combination of Ionic columns, intricate relief sculptures, and a pediment adorned with classical motifs. Johnston's expert composition highlights not only the architectural details but also emphasizes the scale and symmetry of this historic building. The use of marble adds an air of elegance to its facade while capturing a sense of timelessness. As one gazes at this photograph, they are transported back to an earlier era when French influences were prominent in New Orleans' design aesthetic. The staircase leading up to the entrance invites visitors to step into a world where history meets modernity. This stunning print from Granger Art on Demand allows viewers to appreciate both Frances Benjamin Johnston's skillful photography and Gallier Hall's enduring beauty. It serves as a reminder that even amidst changing times, certain landmarks continue to hold their significance within our cities' narratives.
