EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1908, showcases the breathtaking Morningthorpe mansion in Brewster, Putnam County, New York State, USA. Nestled amidst the picturesque landscape, Morningthorpe was the residence of Mrs. Howes, the widow of Seth Benedict Howes (1815-1901). Seth was a renowned circus owner, entrepreneur, and showman, whose name was synonymous with grand spectacles and entertainment in America during the early 1900s. The Tudor-style mansion, with its imposing towers and crenellated walls, exudes an air of wealth and opulence. The rich, large house is adorned with intricate details, including ornate stonework, tall chimneys, and elegant windows. The lush, green grass and towering trees that surround the property add to its serene and idyllic setting. Morningthorpe was more than just a home for Mrs. Howes; it was a symbol of her husband's success and a testament to their prosperous life together. The mansion's grandeur reflects the prosperity and elegance of the Gilded Age in America, a time when the country's industrial might and economic growth led to the creation of impressive architectural marvels. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the American Dream was alive and well, and the country's elite lived in grand style. The image of Morningthorpe, with its towering towers and sprawling grounds, serves as a reminder of the rich history and architectural heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us today.
