EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1922, showcases the elegant William Samuel Kies house located at Scarborough and Old Albany Roads in Scarborough, New York. The architectural design of the house was the collaboration between Patterson & Dula, with plans drawn up as early as 1916. The landscape design was the work of Clarence Fowler around 1920, and James Frederick Dawson of the Olmsted Brothers in 1916. The house, a stunning example of early 20th-century architecture, is adorned with columns and pillars that add to its grandeur. The exterior is bathed in sunlight, casting long shadows on the lush, green lawn. A pergola, adorned with climbing vines, provides a shady respite from the sun. The garden, meticulously designed, is a riot of colors, with blooming flowers adding a splash of vibrancy to the scene. The Olmsted Brothers, a renowned landscape architecture firm, were responsible for the garden design, bringing their expertise in creating beautiful outdoor spaces to this estate. Clarence Fowler, a skilled landscape gardener, added his touch to the project, ensuring that every detail was executed with precision and care. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and elegance of the past, transporting us back to a time when grand houses and beautiful gardens were a symbol of wealth and status. The image, hand-colored in the 1920s, is a treasure from the Library of Congress's collection and a reminder of the rich architectural and gardening heritage of the United States.
