Description

8"h x 10"w black and white landscape oriented photo of Saint Ignatius Roman Catholic Church in St. Inigoes. The church is surrounded by a wrought iron fence of fleur-de-lis spears in arches. Most of the fence is covered with vegetation. The church walls are painted a light color. The cedar shake gable roof has a narrow eave and cornice return with dentil decoration. The visible long side has three leaded glass round arch windows with dark brick caps. The small gable roof sacristy is attached at the back of the church. There is a chimney near the end of the roof peak, white with a darker corbel, and an access door in the center of the side wall. The eaves have the same cornice return and dentil decoration as the sanctuary. On the gable end of the sacristy are two small four over two light plain glass double hung windows near the roof peak and two nine over six plain glass double hung windows on the ground floor. The steeple on the sanctuary is very small with louvers on all four side, a pyramid roof and a small ball and cross surmounting the whole. There are lightning rods on the roof peak. The ground wire for that system hangs over the gable end of the sacristy and is draped over the eaves and down to the ground. ******************************************************************** Text on the verso: in black ball point pen "Miodrag R. Blagojevich" and "#3"
