Brookside,
EDITORS COMMENTS
located at Brookside Road in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, is a stunning example of early 20th century American architecture. Captured in this photograph taken around 1916, the house was designed by the renowned architectural firm Carre`re & Hastings in 1910, with significant alterations and additions completed in 1912 for William Hall Walker and his wife Carrie Jones Walker. The architectural design of "Brookside" is a beautiful blend of classical and modern elements, featuring a circular driveway, elevated view, and a distinctive rounded shape. The house is surrounded by lush gardens, designed by the renowned landscape architect Ferruccio Vitale between 1912 and 1918. The gardens include intricately designed flowerbeds, statues, and a garden casino, adding to the estate's grandeur and elegance. The photograph, hand-coloured and tinted, offers a bird's-eye view of the property, showcasing the house's unique features and the meticulously planned landscape. The image is a testament to the opulence and sophistication of the era, transporting us back in time to the 1920s in the United States. The Library of Congress holds this lantern slide in its collection, a valuable addition to the historical record of American architecture and landscaping during this period. The "Brookside" estate in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, remains a significant historical and architectural landmark, reflecting the grandeur and elegance of the early 20th century American country estate. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, is a beautiful and enduring record of this remarkable property.
