The title points to a place named for its resemblance to a cathedral, a name often given to rock spires, rugged outcrops, or tall stands of trees. Colorado's parks and towns developed around landmarks like these, which drew surveyors, travelers, and photographers who wanted to show the state's dramatic terrain to people back east. The record does not give the exact location or date, so the image is best read as a view of a Colorado park setting and of how outsiders framed unfamiliar western scenery.
