EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Gray Gardens, Robert Carmer Hill house, Lily Pond Lane, East Hampton, New York, c1914," showcases the picturesque beauty of a bygone era in American history. Taken by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, the image transports us to the idyllic countryside of East Hampton, New York, where the Robert Carmer Hill house stands proudly. Designed by architect Joseph Greenleaf Thorp in 1897, the house is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the early 20th century. The landscape, meticulously tended by Anna Gilman (Mrs. Robert C.) Hill, is a riot of color and texture, with climbing plants cascading over the stone walls and vibrant flowers adorning the numerous pots and planters. The entrance to the estate is marked by an elegant gate, leading us down a winding path towards the house. The garden design is a harmonious blend of nature and architecture, with the stone walls, lanterns, and flowerpots adding to the overall charm. The image, hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, is a visual feast for the eyes, offering a glimpse into the world of the privileged few who could afford such opulence. The location, now a part of the Library of Congress, is a reminder of the rich heritage and history of the United States. The image invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of nature, the beauty of a well-designed garden, and the enduring allure of a bygone era.
