EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Gardener Tending Floral Border, Posed to Illustrate Rudyard Kipling's Poem 'The Glory of the Garden,'" was captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the 1910s. The image depicts a gardener deeply engrossed in his work, tending to a lush herbaceous border in full bloom. The serene setting, reminiscent of the countryside, is a fitting illustration of the lines from Kipling's poem, published in 1917: "If you can bear to hear the Grass grow, and the Squirrel's heart be broken, and the flowers come in the Spring, and sing, Then it's yourself, you see, you do not grow old, you're always twenty in that heavenly company." Johnston, who documented the gardens and architecture of America's historic estates, captures the essence of the gardener's devotion to his craft. The man, dressed in work clothes, is focused intently on his task, his hands gently guiding the plants as he weeds and prunes. The garden itself is a riot of colors, with a diverse array of flowers in various stages of bloom, creating a stunning contrast against the green foliage. This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty of nature and the human connection to it. The image, held in the Library of Congress, is a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures of gardening and the joy it brings to those who engage with it. The gardener, much like Kipling's words, transcends the passage of time, remaining forever young in the company of the garden's eternal glory.
