Beacon Hill House,
EDITORS COMMENTS
located at Beacon Hill Road in Newport, Rhode Island, was the elegant residence of Arthur Curtiss James, built in 1910 by the architectural firm Howells & Stokes. This stunning image, captured by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1917, showcases the beauty and grandeur of the house and its surrounding landscaped gardens. The architectural design of the Beacon Hill House is a testament to the elegance of the early 20th century. The house, with its red-tiled roof, white clapboard siding, and intricate stonework, sits proudly atop a hill, overlooking the lush greenery and vibrant flower beds below. The landscape design was the work of Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. and the Olmsted Brothers, in collaboration with Hempsted of Boston and John Greatorex, the gardener. The gardens, a masterpiece in their own right, are a riot of color and texture. The flower beds, meticulously tended, are filled with a variety of blooms, adding a burst of vibrancy to the scene. The grassy areas, dotted with trees and shrubs, provide a sense of tranquility and serenity. The lantern slide, hand-colored by Frances Benjamin Johnston, captures the essence of the house and its surroundings, transporting us back to a bygone era. This image is a testament to the rich architectural and horticultural heritage of Newport, Rhode Island, and the United States as a whole. The Beacon Hill House, with its stunning design and beautiful gardens, stands as a symbol of the elegance and sophistication of the early 20th century. This lantern slide, a piece of history in itself, provides us with a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of a bygone era.
