EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite John Bartram House, a testament to American architecture and history. The image zooms in on a fascinating detail—an inscription nestled between the first and second story windows of this colonial-era house and garden. Built by renowned botanist John Bartram in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania around 1728, this architectural gem has withstood the test of time. The photograph, taken by Joseph Elliot in 2002, beautifully captures the essence of this early American structure. The stone inscription stands as a silent witness to Bartram's legacy and his contributions to botanical exploration during that era. It serves as a reminder of the rich history that unfolded within these walls. Surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees, the house exudes an air of tranquility amidst its urban setting. Its exterior reflects classic colonial design elements while maintaining its original charm. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time—immersing ourselves in America's past. We can almost envision John Bartram himself tending to his beloved garden or engaging in deep conversations about plants with fellow intellectuals who frequented his home. This print is not just an artistic masterpiece but also a window into our nation's heritage—a tangible connection to those who came before us and shaped our present world through their passion for knowledge and nature.
