Easter Celebration at Historic St. Thomass Church
This photograph captures a moment at St. Thomass Church during the Easter period between 1910 and 1915. Located in New York City, St. Thomass is an Episcopal parish that has served the community since its establishment in 1823. The church is known for its striking Gothic architecture and beautiful stained glass windows, which have made it a significant landmark in the area. During Easter, it attracts many visitors and congregants that come to celebrate one of the most important events in the Christian calendar.
The image was taken by a photographer from the Bain News Service, a prominent photo service during the early 20th century known for capturing various aspects of American life. The photograph serves as a historical document, illustrating not just the architectural beauty of St. Thomass, but also the communities that participated in religious traditions at the time. The use of glass negatives was common in photography of this era, allowing for high-quality reproduction of images that would become a valuable part of the historical record.
