Description An account of the resource The building presents a symmetrical, classically composed façade with the base of the building rusticated, and the rest of the facade is brick with tall arched windows and a heavy modillioned cornice. The church is also adorned with a golden cross on top. The tall, frosted glass arched openings and blank brick arches alternating on the upper levels give the façade a rhythm and sense of verticality while maintaining elegant restraint. The interior is designed to be a late-Renaissance and Baroque style. The columns rise to support a richly ornamented entablature and gallery, and the overall volume conveys both grandeur and symmetry. There are no intrusive structural columns dividing the nave, allowing unobstructed views toward the high altar. The stained-glass windows installed in the 1870s and comprising some seventeen different colors bring vibrant light into the space, enhancing the layered ornamentation and inviting the visitor’s gaze upward. the church’s setting and architectural composition reflect broader civic and cultural ambitions of the Catholic community in Baltimore in the 1850s. Positioned along Calvert Street between Madison and Monument Streets, the building was conceived as a “palace” of the Italianate style that proclaimed the growing confidence of the Jesuit-administered parish.
