About this postcard

The picture shows Christ Church (Episcopal) in Norfolk, Virginia, its tall Gothic Revival tower rising above dense trees, with a balustraded wall and water in the foreground. The printed caption calls the building a reproduction of one of England's famous churches. Christ Church is an Episcopal congregation in Norfolk, and the design reflects the Gothic Revival taste in American church architecture.
