EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the beautiful garden of Mrs. Franklin H. Walker's residence in Detroit, Michigan, between 1905 and 1915. The exact creator of this image remains unknown, but it is believed to have been captured during the early 20th century. The garden, filled with vibrant flowers and meticulously manicured shrubs, displays an exquisite sense of symmetry and order, reflecting the elegant taste and refined sensibilities of the era. Mrs. Walker, whose maiden name was Mary May Holbrook, was the wife of Franklin Hiram Walker, a prominent businessman and philanthropist in Detroit. The residence and its gardens were a source of pride for the Walker family and were renowned for their beauty and grandeur. The garden design, with its intricately arranged flower beds and carefully planned layout, is a testament to the importance of horticulture and landscape design during this period. The photograph, taken as a dry plate negative on glass, measures 8 x 10 inches and provides a unique glimpse into the past. Sadly, the Residence of Mrs. Franklin H. Walker no longer stands, but this photograph serves as an enduring reminder of the heritage and history of Detroit and the United States during the 1900s and 1910s. The image is now part of the historic collection at the Library of Congress and is an invaluable resource for those interested in the social, cultural, and aesthetic aspects of American history.
