Description
Photograph of an exterior view of Saint Vibiana's Catholic Cathedral, from Main Street, ca.1950-1959. The two-story Greek Revival-style church is pictured at center, three different doors visible in its facade. The centermost door is flanked by columns, while secondary doors are at left and right, each topped by a statue. Above the center, two other statues flank a rose window. A latin inscription above the center door reads: "sub invocatone sanctae vibianae virginis et martyris".
