EDITORS COMMENTS
Arcady--'where all the leaves are merry'--this evocative title captures the enchanting allure of Frances Benjamin Johnston's photograph taken between 1930 and 1940 of her house located at 1132 Bourbon Street in New Orleans, Louisiana. Johnston, a renowned American architectural photographer and preservationist, masterfully captured the essence of this historic building and its charming surroundings. The image showcases the beautiful facade of the house, adorned with ornate balconies that seem to beckon passersby. The balconies, draped in lush greenery, appear as if they are inviting visitors to step into another world--an Arcady, a place of unbridled joy and beauty. The French influence is evident in the building's architecture, with its intricate details and elegant design. The photograph was taken during the 1930s, a time when New Orleans was undergoing significant changes. Yet, Johnston's image preserves the timeless charm of the city's historic architecture, reminding us of its rich heritage and history. The photograph is now part of the Library of Congress's collection, a testament to Johnston's legacy as a pioneering photographer and advocate for architectural preservation. The scene outside Johnston's house on Bourbon Street is a feast for the eyes, with the vibrant foliage and the intricate details of the buildings lining the street. The image transports us to a bygone era, a time when life seemed to move a little slower, and the simple pleasures of the natural world were cherished. This photograph is a reminder of the importance of preserving our architectural heritage, and the beauty that can be found in the details of our surroundings.
