Surprise Valley Farm
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph of an elegant estate located on Beacon Hill Road in Newport, Rhode Island. The property, owned by railroad magnate Arthur Curtiss James, was designed by renowned American architect Grosvenor Atterbury in 1914. The architectural inspiration for the estate was drawn from a village in the Italian region of Switzerland, reflecting the rural charm of the countryside. The photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1917, showcases the picturesque exterior of the estate, surrounded by lush greenery and rolling hills. The rustic, yet refined, design of the buildings exudes a sense of tranquility and serenity, transporting viewers to a simpler time. The estate's name, "Surprise Valley Farm," adds to the allure of the property, suggesting a hidden gem nestled in the countryside. The photograph is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of the United States during the 1910s, a time of innovation and creativity in American design. The estate's design, inspired by European rural traditions, is an example of the regionalism movement that was popular during this period. The photograph is part of the extensive collection of Frances Benjamin Johnston's work held at the Library of Congress, which documents the architectural and cultural history of the United States. The "Surprise Valley Farm" estate is a stunning example of the beauty and elegance of rural life in America during the early 20th century. The photograph invites viewers to imagine the peaceful scenes that unfolded on the property, making it a valuable addition to any collection of American architectural history or rural life imagery.
