Mount Vernon,
EDITORS COMMENTS
the iconic estate of George Washington, is depicted in this stunning photograph taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in approximately 1894. Located on the George Washington Parkway in Mount Vernon, Virginia, this historic site holds immense significance in American history. The image captures the grandeur of the estate's main mansion, with its red-roofed façade, white columns, and symmetrical design. The surrounding landscape is dotted with allotments and gardens, reflecting the agricultural heritage of the country. The presence of a summerhouse in the foreground adds to the serene beauty of the scene. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prominent figure in the early 20th century, captured this moment in time through her lantern slides, which were popular during the 1910-1930 period. Her work is now part of the rich collection at the Library of Congress, providing a glimpse into the past and preserving the historical significance of Mount Vernon and its famous resident, General George Washington. The estate, situated in Fairfax County, Virginia, United States, has been a major tourist attraction since the late 19th century. The image invites us to imagine the summer days spent on the plantation, the sounds of nature, and the legacy of one of America's founding fathers. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of Mount Vernon and its place in the annals of American history.
