This picture is titled for the Warrington home, a house in New Orleans that the caption identifies as haunted, and the card's subject tracing for death suggests the legend was part of how it was catalogued. Arnold Genthe, a German-born photographer who worked in New Orleans before the First World War, was drawn to the city's old buildings, and his prints often favor weathered walls and deep shadow over people. The 1920 to 1924 date comes from the caption card and is not independently confirmed, so treat the exact year as an estimate.
