Description
Louisiana School (First Quarter 20th Century), "The Old Newcomb Chapel", oil on canvasboard, 14" x 18". Presented in a carved giltwood frame. The Old Newcomb Chapel, located in the New Orleans Garden District, was designed by American architect Wilson Eyre and built in 1894-95. It was commissioned as a memorial to Harriot Sophie Newcomb (1855-1870) by her mother, Josephine Louise Le Monnier Newcomb, founder of Newcomb College. The chapel's Tiffany stained glass windows--shown in this painting--were removed in 1918 when the college vacated the building. The chapel was razed in 1954.
