EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1907, captures the breathtaking interior of the John R. McLean House located at 1500 I Street N.W. in Washington, D.C. The image showcases the music room, which faces the grand ballroom, and showcases the elegant design and architectural features of the turn-of-the-century residence. The high ceiling adorned with intricate moldings and ornate tapestries sets the tone for the spacious room, which is furnished with a settee and chairs arranged around a piano. The music room's walls are adorned with tapestries and wall hangings, adding to the room's rich textures and colors. The large, arched doorway leading to the ballroom further emphasizes the grandeur of the house. John R. McLean was a prominent businessman and politician in Washington, D.C., and this residence was one of the most impressive homes in the city during the early 20th century. The interior design and decoration reflect the opulence and sophistication of the time, making this photograph a valuable historical record of the era. Frances Benjamin Johnston was a pioneering American photographer, known for her documentation of historic buildings and interiors. This photograph, part of the Library of Congress's Prints and Photographs Division, is a testament to her skill and dedication to preserving the architectural heritage of the United States.
