EDITORS COMMENTS
Beacon Hill House, formerly known as the Arthur Curtiss James house, is a historic mansion located on Beacon Hill Road in Newport, Rhode Island. This stunning image, captured by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1917, showcases the beauty and grandeur of this architectural masterpiece. The house itself was designed by the esteemed architectural firm of Howells & Stokes and completed in 1910. However, the landscape design was the work of Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. and his firm, Olmsted Brothers, in collaboration with Hempsted of Boston as contractors and John Greatorex as the gardener. The photograph captures the house's elegant facade, adorned with a striking archway, against a backdrop of meticulously designed gardens. The vibrant colors of the flowerbeds, hand-tinted in this lantern slide, add a pop of brilliance to the otherwise muted tones of the house and the surrounding landscape. The concept of the image is a testament to the harmonious relationship between architecture and nature, as the house seamlessly blends into the lush greenery and colorful flora. The Beacon Hill House is a significant piece of American architectural history, and this image by Frances Benjamin Johnston serves as a beautiful reminder of the elegance and sophistication of the early 20th century. The image is part of the collections of the Library of Congress, and its preservation ensures that future generations can appreciate the beauty and history of this remarkable building.
