Description

Photograph of an exterior view of the Academy of The Holy Names, ca.1900. A sidewalk lies in front of a small yard where a pathway leads to the large, shaded entrance on the right. A plant climbs a pillar of the entrance at center, but the rest of the building appears to be lightly-colored and smooth with many rectangular windows in the front wall. A section protrudes from the roof at center with a cross at its top and the words "Academy of the Holy Names". Two trees obscure the view of the building on either side.
