West Potomac Park, Washington, D.C., 1921: A Vision of Beauty and History This lantern slide image, captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1921, showcases the breathtaking West Potomac Park in Washington, D.C. The park, set aside for development by the McMillan Commission in 1902, was completed in May 1922 under the supervision of landscape architects Frederick Law Olmsted Jr., James Leal Greenleaf, and the Army Corps of Engineers. The scene unfolds as a picturesque tableau of nature and history. The serene lake, surrounded by lush flower beds and vibrant foliage, reflects the clear blue sky above. The gentle curve of the path invites visitors to explore the park's hidden treasures. A traditional lantern, placed at the edge of the flower bed, adds a touch of whimsy and charm to the scene. The 1920s were a time of growth and transformation in America, and this image encapsulates the spirit of the era. The park, a testament to the country's commitment to preserving its natural beauty and heritage, stands as a symbol of the progress and optimism of the time. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering figure in American photography, expertly captures the essence of this historic landscape. Her meticulous attention to detail and mastery of color are on full display in this stunning image. The result is a timeless work of art that continues to inspire and delight viewers today.
