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 is now a cherished piece of American heritage, was originally built around 1770 and was inherited by Elizabeth Cairns Ward in 1882. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the house underwent expansion, transforming it into the stunning Colonial Revival mansion that can be seen in this photograph, taken around 1914. The image, captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, showcases the picturesque exterior of Willowmere. The house is adorned with vibrant flowers and lush greenery, adding to its charm and beauty. The garden, which is meticulously designed, features a winding walkway leading to a quaint lantern, illuminating the way. The trees, in full bloom, provide a canopy of shade, while the roses, in their prime, add a burst of color to the scene. The house, with its elegant columns and intricate detailing, stands proudly against the backdrop of nature, showcasing the perfect harmony between man-made structures and the natural world. This photograph, taken from the Library of Congress' collection of lantern slides hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, is a testament to the rich history and heritage of Roslyn Harbor, Nassau County, New York, and the United States as a whole. The image captures a moment in time, preserving the beauty and charm of Willowmere for generations to come.
