The Orchard
EDITORS COMMENTS
at 151 Hill Street in Southampton, New York, is a stunning example of early 20th century American architecture and landscape design. Captured in this photograph taken around 1914 by Frances Benjamin Johnston, the estate's grandeur is evident as the eye is drawn to the imposing James Lawrence Breese house, designed by the esteemed architectural firm McKim, Mead & White between 1898 and 1907. The Colonial Revival-style mansion, with its red-tiled roof and white clapboard siding, sits majestically amidst an expansive orchard, its trees heavy with fruit. The landscape design, also the work of McKim, Mead & White, complements the house perfectly, with meticulously planned rows of trees and a serene, idyllic atmosphere. The Orchard in Southampton was not just a residence but also a working farm, reflecting the agricultural heritage of New York State during this period. The black and white image, reminiscent of lantern slides popular during the 1910s, transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the beauty and elegance of America's historic estates. This photograph, taken from the Library of Congress, is a valuable historical record, documenting not only the architectural and landscape achievements of the time but also the lifestyle and traditions of the early 20th century. The Orchard at 151 Hill Street in Southampton, New York, continues to stand as a testament to the rich heritage of American architecture and design.
