Description
Langles Bridge (1902)
Dedicated in the memory of Angele M. Langles for her gift of $650.00 to City Park. Historical note: Ms. Langles and her mother died on July 4, 1898 when the French steamboat La Bourgogne sank after colliding with a British ship in the North Atlantic. - See more at: http://neworleanscitypark.com/art-and-architecture#sthash.n9GacK0j.dpufCity Park owes much of its art and architecture to the 1930s Works Progress Administration (WPA). This massive federal public works project put millions of people across the country to work building parks and roads, and employed scores of artists in public art projects. Most of the existing brick cottage-style outbuildings and Art Deco sculptures in the park were constructed during this time, and the landscape of City Park is dotted with original artwork from the WPA era. Sculptural elements range from bas-reliefs on bridges and surrounding Tad Gormley Stadium to sculptures in the Botanical Garden, where most of the WPA-era Art Deco works are located. Many of these sculptures were created by Enrique Alferez, a Mexican-born sculptor who lived in New Orleans and whose work can be seen on landmarks and buildings around the city. - See more at: http://neworleanscitypark.com/art-and-architecture#sthash.n9GacK0j.dpuf
