EDITORS COMMENTS
Beacon Hill House, also known as the Arthur Curtiss James house, is a historic mansion located on Beacon Hill Road in Newport, Rhode Island. This stunning residence was designed by the architectural firm Howells & Stokes in 1910 and the landscape was designed by the Olmsted Brothers, led by Frederick Law Olmsted Jr., between 1908 and 1916, with Hempsted of Boston serving as contractors. John Greatorex was the gardener responsible for maintaining the beautiful gardens. The photograph, taken in 1917 by Frances Benjamin Johnston, captures the essence of the Beacon Hill House during its prime. The house, with its elegant blue and white facade, stands proudly against the backdrop of the lush, green landscape. The gardens, meticulously designed by the Olmsted Brothers, are in full bloom, showcasing a riot of colors from various flowers and foliage. The hand-tinted lantern slide, taken by Johnston, adds an extra touch of vibrancy to the image, making it a true testament to the beauty and grandeur of the era. The Beacon Hill House is a significant piece of American architectural and gardening history. It is a reminder of the opulence and sophistication of the early 20th century and the importance of the collaboration between architects, landscape designers, and gardeners in creating stunning works of art. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, is a valuable addition to any collection of historic American buildings and gardens.
