Description
English: A 1914 engraving of the First Baptist Church of Providence.

Original caption: The Baptist Cathedral of America

The first Baptist Meeting-House, built in 1774, is one of the noblest works of architecture in America of any period. Its plan was drawn by James Gibbs, as one of three alternate plans for the Church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, London. Gibbs was one of Sir Christopher Wren’s chief successors. Joseph Brown and James Sumner were the architects who adapted the plans and saw to the execution.
