EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Albert Herter's Blue & White Garden, East Hampton, 1913: A Visual Delight in Black and White This photograph, titled "Mrs. Albert Herter, East Hampton, Blue & White Garden, 1913," is a stunning example of the artistic collaboration between renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston and the Johnston-Hewitt Studio. The image captures the enchanting terrace of "The Creeks," the East Hampton estate owned by Albert and Adele Herter [nee McGinnis]. The photograph showcases the terrace with its elegant steps, adorned with an array of flowering plants, creating a harmonious blend of nature and architecture. The blue and white color palette, a popular choice during the early 20th century, adds a serene and timeless quality to the image. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering American photographer and architectural historian, documented numerous historic sites and gardens throughout the United States. Her collaboration with Mattie Edwards Hewitt and the Johnston-Hewitt Studio resulted in a significant body of work, capturing the essence of the American landscape during the 1910s. This black and white gelatin silver print, housed in the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting viewers to a bygone era of elegant gardens and leisurely country living. The image invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of nature and the beauty of a well-designed garden, a testament to the enduring allure of the great outdoors.
