Untermyer Garden, 1917
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning photograph captured by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. This image transports us back to the 1910s in the United States, specifically to Yonkers, Westchester County, New York State. The photograph showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Untermyer Garden, a masterpiece of architectural and landscape design. The garden, designed by William Welles Bosworth and inspired by Italian and Moorish gardens, is a feast for the eyes. The path leads us through the lush greenery, past a serene pond, and towards a magnificent loggia. The loggia, with its intricate arches and columns, is a testament to the garden's grandeur and the architectural heritage of the time. The garden's geographical features are as captivating as its architectural ones. The garden is nestled in a country setting, with the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape providing a perfect backdrop. The garden's walled boundaries add to its secluded and private atmosphere, making it a true oasis. This photograph, a nitrate negative from the Library of Congress, is a still image from the past that invites us to explore the history and heritage of American gardens. The contrast between the dark and light areas creates a striking visual effect, making the garden's features stand out even more. The image is a reminder of the beauty and tranquility that can be found in nature, even in the midst of a bustling city or town. Arnold Genthe's "Untermyer Garden, 1917" is not only a photograph, but a window into the past, a glimpse into a time when gardens were a source of inspiration, relaxation, and beauty. This image is a true testament to the power of photography to capture and preserve the past for future generations to enjoy and appreciate.
