About this postcard

The card shows the twin Gothic Revival spires, rose window, and ornate stone facade of St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City, as named in the red printed caption. Designed by James Renwick Jr., the cathedral was completed in 1879 and serves as the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York. The view emphasizes the cathedral's tall paired spires against a blue sky.
