EDITORS COMMENTS
Old Acres," the Robert Low Bacon house, located in Old Westbury, New York, is a stunning example of early 20th-century American estate architecture. Captured in this beautiful hand-colored lantern slide image from 1921, the house was designed by renowned architect John Russell Pope between 1904 and 1910. The exterior of the house exudes an air of grandeur and elegance, with its symmetrical facade, intricate stonework, and impressive staircase leading up to the entrance. The surrounding gardens, designed by landscape architect Martha Brookes Brown Hutcheson during the same period, add to the estate's beauty and charm. In the foreground of the image, a colorful arrangement of flowers spills over a stone wall, adding a pop of vibrancy to the scene. The winding walkway, leading to what appears to be a lantern or a fountain, invites exploration of the gardens and the estate beyond. The Old Acres estate, located in Old Westbury, Nassau County, New York, is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the early 20th century in the United States. The image, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston in the 1920s, is a valuable historical record of this beautiful estate and its gardens, which continue to inspire and captivate visitors to this day. John Russell Pope's architectural design is evident in the house's classical details, while Martha Brookes Brown Hutcheson's landscape design adds to the estate's natural beauty. The image, part of the Frances Benjamin Johnston collection at the Library of Congress, is a reminder of the rich heritage of American estate architecture and garden design from the early 1900s.
