EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, dating back to the early 1900s, captures the stunning architectural beauty of Dartmouth and Wentworth Halls at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, USA. The image, which measures 8 x 10 inches and was likely taken using a dry plate negative process, showcases the impressive exterior of these historic buildings as they stand proudly on the college grounds. Dartmouth College, founded in 1769, is one of the oldest educational institutions in the United States. The college's campus is renowned for its picturesque setting and impressive architecture, with Dartmouth and Wentworth Halls being two of its most iconic structures. Dartmouth Hall, the older of the two buildings, was completed in 1822 and served as the college's main building for over a century. Its impressive Greek Revival architecture is evident in the columned portico and the pedimented gable. Wentworth Hall, built in 1871, is a Gothic Revival structure that was originally designed as a women's dormitory. Its distinctive red brick facade and intricate stonework add to the overall charm of the college's campus. The photograph, which is now part of the Library of Congress's extensive collection, offers a glimpse into the past and provides a valuable record of the architectural heritage of Dartmouth College. The image also captures the beauty of the college's grounds and the tranquility of the outdoor setting, making it a treasured piece of American history and a testament to the enduring allure of higher education in the United States.
