"The Cathedral, Baltimore, Maryland"

Frederick Langenheim, William Langenheim

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an urban street from an eye-level perspective. Buildings line the street, with a street lamp in the center and a man standing by the curb. A large building with a brick facade is on the right, while trees line the street, adding a touch of greenery. The color palette is dominated by soft, muted sepia tones, typical of early photography.
