EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston between 1903 and 1923, offers a glimpse into the elegant interior of Mrs. Paul T. Mayo's stone mountain lodge nestled in the picturesque Bear Creek Canon, Colorado. Designed by architect Jacques Benois Benedict, the lodge's grandeur is evident in its soaring cathedral ceiling, ornate fireplace, and intricately designed chandelier. The fireplace mantel, adorned with intricate carvings, adds to the rustic yet refined ambiance of the space. The lodge, which served as the home of Margery Verner Reed and Paul Thoburn Mayo during this period, exudes a sense of warmth and comfort. The polar bear rug, a prominent feature of the room, adds a touch of the wilderness that surrounds the lodge, while the furniture, with its rich textures and patterns, complements the natural beauty of the space. The photograph, now held in the Library of Congress, provides a window into a bygone era of American history, showcasing the grandeur and sophistication of mountain retreats during the early 20th century. The architectural details, from the intricate ceiling to the ornate fireplace, are a testament to the skill and artistry of Jacques Benois Benedict, whose designs continue to inspire and captivate viewers today.
