EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the early 1910s, showcases the enchanting beauty of the Samuel Knopf house located in Lawrence, New York. Built around 1907, this architectural gem is nestled amidst lush greenery and vibrant flowers, reflecting the harmonious blend of nature and design that was popular during the early 20th century. The house, with its classical columns and intricate details, stands proudly against the backdrop of a colorful garden. The columns, adorned with climbing plants, add an air of elegance and sophistication, while the pergola and benches provide a serene setting for relaxation and contemplation. The garden, bursting with a variety of flowers, adds a splash of color and charm to the scene. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering figure in American garden and architectural photography, captured this image as part of her extensive collection of lantern slides, hand-colored between 1910 and 1920. Her meticulous attention to detail and ability to highlight the unique character of each subject made her a leading figure in the documentation of America's architectural and gardening heritage. This photograph, taken in Lawrence, Nassau County, New York, is a testament to the enduring beauty of the past and the timeless allure of gardens and country estates. It is a reminder of the simple pleasures of nature and the importance of preserving the rich cultural heritage of America's built environment.
