EDITORS COMMENTS
The Dunes" at Frank Bestow Wiborg house, located on Highway Behind the Pond in East Hampton, New York, is a stunning example of early 20th century American architecture and landscape design. Captured in this photograph, taken around 1915 by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, the residence stands proudly amidst the natural beauty of its surroundings. Designed by Grosvenor Atterbury in 1895, the house is a testament to the architectural elegance of the era. Its simple yet refined lines and use of natural materials blend seamlessly with the landscape, creating a harmonious relationship between the built environment and nature. The landscape design, credited to Adeline Sherman (Mrs. Frank Bestow) Wiborg, enhances the beauty of the house with its meticulously planned flower beds and gardens. The vibrant roses and other flowers add a splash of color to the scene, while the bushy plants and trees provide a lush backdrop. The photograph also showcases the outbuildings and doorways of the property, which add to the overall charm of the estate. The use of a lantern slide, hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, adds an extra layer of detail and authenticity to the image. This photograph, taken at the height of the summer season, captures the essence of a bygone era in American history. The Dunes at Frank Bestow Wiborg house stands as a symbol of the beauty and elegance of the early 20th century, and a reminder of the importance of preserving our heritage for future generations. The Library of Congress holds this image in its vast collection, making it an invaluable resource for historians, architects, and anyone interested in the history of American architecture and landscape design.
