EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Willard Hotel - view through a curtained doorway to a lounge, between 1901 and 1910," is a stunning example of American Beaux-Arts architecture captured by the renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. The image, taken between the early 20th century, specifically between 1901 and 1910, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and elegance of the past. The photograph, held in the Library of Congress, depicts a view from inside the historic Willard Hotel in Washington D.C., United States of America. Through a curtained doorway, we catch a glimpse of a cozy lounge, filled with soft furnishings and ornate furniture. The monochrome palette of the image, created through the use of cyanotypes, adds to the timeless quality of the photograph. The Willard Hotel, originally named the Willard Inn, was established in 1818 and has since been a symbol of American heritage and history. The hotel has played host to numerous notable figures, including presidents and politicians, and has been a significant part of the country's Congressional Library. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of opulence and refinement. The image showcases the intricate interior design and decoration of the hotel, with the soft furnishings and ornate furniture adding to the overall sense of grandeur. The use of a curtained doorway adds an element of mystery and intrigue, inviting us to imagine the conversations and stories that unfolded within the walls of this historic building.
