Pelicans, 1899

Just a peaceful scene showing two Louisiana State Birds perched on a skiff next to an interesting rustic bridge somewhere in New Orleans City Park. Photographic opportunities such as this were, of course, much more common at the close of the 19th century in Alexander Allison’s New Orleans than they are in the 21st century city.
