F. Werner Hoppe   (active ca. 1920-1930)     THE WOOLWORTH BUILDING, THROUGH THE ARCH, ca. 1920. Signed and titled in pencil. Hoppe devoted himself to scenes of lower Manhattan, and frequently included this landmark building whose Gothic revival details inspired its nickname, “the cathedral of commerce.” Nearest to the arch is the City Hall.
