EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Wellington," showcases the historic Malcolm Matheson house located on Fox Hunt Road in Alexandria, Virginia, United States. Built in the 18th century, this architectural gem was originally owned by Colonel Tobias Lear, a close friend and personal secretary to George Washington. After Colonel Lear's death in 1818, the house passed down through generations of his descendants. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a renowned American photographer and historian, captured this image of the house in the early 20th century during the 1920s. The photograph presents a stunning exterior view of the house, with its elegant columns and pillars, intricately designed facade, and lush garden terrace. The house is adorned with vibrant colors and details, including a red chair on the terrace and a lantern hanging on the wall, adding to the charm of the scene. The Malcolm Matheson house is a significant piece of American history, representing the rich heritage and horticulture of the colonial era. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, is a testament to the beauty and grandeur of the past, and serves as a reminder of the historical significance of Alexandria, Virginia, and the United States as a whole. This image is part of the Frances Benjamin Johnston Collection at the Library of Congress, and is a valuable resource for historians, architects, and anyone interested in American history and heritage. The photograph is a still image, hand-colored between 1920 and 1930, and is a beautiful addition to any collection of historic American buildings and landscapes.
