EDITORS COMMENTS
Willowmere," located at 435 Bryant Avenue in Roslyn Harbor, New York, is a historic Colonial Revival house that once belonged to Rear Admiral Aaron Ward. The house, which dates back to circa 1770, was inherited by Elizabeth Cairns Ward in 1882 and underwent expansion in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This stunning photograph, taken in the 1910s, captures the beauty and elegance of the Willowmere estate. The image showcases the house's exterior, adorned with intricate details and colonial-style elements. The front yard is filled with lush greenery, including tall trees and vibrant flower beds, creating a picturesque scene. At the center of the flower bed, a beautiful rose bush blooms, its vibrant red petals standing out against the green foliage. A birdhouse, perhaps a cherished addition to the garden, sits atop one of the trees, adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. The lantern slide, hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when grand estates like Willowmere were a symbol of wealth and status. The image, taken by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, is a testament to the beauty and charm of America's historic homes and gardens. The Willowmere estate, situated in Roslyn Harbor, Nassau County, New York, is a significant piece of American heritage. This photograph, now part of the Library of Congress collection, serves as a reminder of the rich history and natural beauty that can be found in the United States.
