St. Mark's Episcopal Cathedral in Seattle fills the frame with a large Gothic Revival stone facade, tall pointed windows, and a cross at the roofline. A vintage automobile is parked at the left, and lawn and trees surround the building. The parish dates to 1889, and the cathedral on Capitol Hill was completed in the late 1920s, placing the scene in the motor age. St. Mark's is the cathedral church of the Episcopal Diocese of Olympia.
