Beacon Hill House, Newport, Rhode Island, 1917: A Timeless Masterpiece of American Architecture and Landscape Design This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1917, captures the breathtaking beauty and elegance of the Beacon Hill House in Newport, Rhode Island. Designed by the distinguished architectural team of John Mead Howells and Isaac Newton Phelps Stokes, this country estate was built in 1910 for railroad magnate Arthur Curtiss James. The Beacon Hill House is a stunning example of the Italianate architectural style, with its grand facade, intricate detailing, and symmetrical design. The grounds of the estate are equally impressive, featuring Italianate gardens that showcase an ornamental pond, lush greenery, and an array of exotic plants. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1910s and the golden age of American architecture and landscaping. The estate's serene setting, nestled amidst the rolling hills of Newport, Rhode Island, is a testament to the enduring beauty and charm of America's heritage. Johnston's photograph is a valuable addition to the Library of Congress's collection of photographic prints from the 1910s and 1920s. It is a reminder of the rich architectural and horticultural history of the United States and the importance of preserving these treasures for future generations.
