Description
Vintage white Gothic Revival church in the glow of late afternoon light, converted from color to black-and-white, then sepia--with noise added for an old newspaper look. (Also see color and black-and-white versions in this album.) This offset frontal view, framed by trees, features the steeple and cross of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, located in the Port Townsend Historic District, Port Townsend, Washington.
Port Townsend is in Jefferson County, at the northeast tip of the Olympic Peninsula on Washington's north shore. A direct frontal shot, featuring the church's front steps and signature red double-doors, is also available in this album in color, black-and-white, and sepia. This is one of my favorites.
St. Paul's Episcopal Church, built in 1865 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970, is included in the Port Townsend Historic District, which was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977. The architect of the church is unknown.
