EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back to the vibrant streets of New Orleans in 1938. The image showcases a charming storefront on Bourbon Street, which was captured by the talented Frances Benjamin Johnston. Standing proudly at 906 Bourbon Street, this hardware store exudes an old-world charm that is synonymous with the French Quarter. The brick building stands tall, its exterior weathered by time but still retaining its character. An oriel window juts out from the second floor, adding architectural interest to the scene. A wire sign hangs above the entrance, displaying "Hardware" in bold letters, inviting passersby to explore what lies within. The display windows are filled with an assortment of tools and supplies – paint cans neatly stacked alongside various items waiting to be discovered by eager customers. The text on these products tells stories of countless projects completed and dreams realized. Frances Benjamin Johnston's expert composition captures not only a physical space but also a sense of history and community that permeates through every inch of New Orleans' streets. This photograph serves as a reminder of how even humble storefronts can hold immense beauty and cultural significance. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but feel drawn into the bustling energy that once filled these streets - a testament to both human ingenuity and resilience against adversity.
