EDITORS COMMENTS
Pre's Choisis," a captivating image of the Albert Herter house located at Georgica Pond in East Hampton, New York, dates back to 1913. The house, designed by Grovesnor Atterbury in 1898-1899, is nestled on a serene 75-acre estate that was gifted to the Herters as a wedding present from Albert Herter's mother, Mary Herter. The photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, showcases the picturesque beauty of the estate. The house, with its red-roofed facade, stands proudly against the backdrop of lush greenery and vibrant flowers. The outdoor space is adorned with elegant benches, a shaded patio, and a colorful array of plant containers. Adele McGinnis (Mrs. Albert Herter) and Albert Herter are seen enjoying the tranquil surroundings, seated on the bench near the garden. The estate's landscape design, a collaboration between Adele and Albert Herter since 1898, is evident in the meticulously manicured gardens and the thoughtfully placed plant containers. The image transports us to a bygone era, where the simple pleasures of nature and the beauty of a well-designed home come together to create a harmonious and idyllic setting. The lantern slides hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, now part of the Library of Congress's collection, offer a glimpse into the rich heritage of American architecture and landscape design. Pre's Choisis, a testament to the elegance and charm of the early 20th century, remains an enduring symbol of the timeless allure of the American countryside.
