EDITORS COMMENTS
the George Owen Knapp house, located at Sycamore Canyon Road in Montecito, California, is a stunning example of Italianate mission style architecture captured in this beautiful 1917 photograph by Frances Benjamin Johnston. The house was originally designed by Ralph Radcliffe-Whitehead and built by Christopher Tornoe in 1911 for George Owen Knapp. Later, it was expanded by E. Russell Ray in the same year. The serene image showcases the beauty of the estate's gardens, which were meticulously designed and maintained. The lower garden was created by Francis Townsend Underhill in 1914, while the upper garden was designed by Carlton Monroe Winslow with Charles Gibbs Adams around 1913. The estate's landscape was overseen by Charles R. Waugh from 1912 to 1928, with John Scott serving as the head gardener. The photograph captures the peaceful atmosphere of the estate, with the reflection of the trees and plants in the pond and swimming pool adding to the tranquility of the scene. The image is hand-colored, adding vibrancy and depth to the already stunning landscape. The Italianate mission style house is nestled among the trees and lush greenery, creating a harmonious blend of architecture and nature. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and elegance of the Montecito estate during the 1910s in the United States. The image is part of the Frances Benjamin Johnston collection at the Library of Congress and is a valuable piece of American heritage art, showcasing the country's rich architectural and horticultural history.
