EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1925, showcases the enchanting beauty of Villa Gamberaia located in Settignano, Tuscany, Italy. The villa, with its rich history, was originally designed by the architect Zanobi Lapi between 1610 and 1630. The villa's stunning architecture is further enhanced by the meticulously landscaped grounds, which date back to the same period and were created by Zanobi Lapi and other artists. In the foreground of this image, a serene bench invites visitors to take a moment to absorb the breathtaking views of the Italian countryside. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the villa's facade are accentuated by the lush greenery and the winding path that leads deeper into the gardens. The water terrace on the south parterre, created by Princess Jeanne Ghyka and Martino Porcinai in 1896, adds to the villa's allure with its shimmering reflection of the sun-kissed Italian sky. At the time of this photograph, the villa was owned by Baroness Clemens August von Ketteler, an American heiress who had made Italy her home. The villa's timeless charm and beauty continue to captivate visitors from around the world, making it a cherished piece of Italian heritage and a testament to the enduring allure of the Italian countryside.
