EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the late 1890s, showcases the stunning interior of the Barber House, also known as "Belmont," located in Washington, D.C. The Barber House, designed by architect Amzi Lorenzo Barber and decorated by Theophilus Parsons Chandler, is a prime example of Queen Anne style architecture from the nineteenth century. In this image, we are given a glimpse into the grandeur of the Barber House's interior, specifically the bottom of the stairway adorned with a large tapestry. The intricately carved banisters and bannisters, as well as the decorative frieze above, add to the opulence of the space. The use of black and white in this photograph, a common technique during the cyanotype process popular in the late 1800s, adds a timeless quality to the image. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering figure in American photography and architectural documentation, captured the essence of this historic mansion, preserving its beauty for future generations. The Barber House, with its rich history and intricate design, continues to be an important piece of American heritage and a testament to the country's architectural past.
