EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston around the turn of the 20th century, captures the elegant Corcoran House located at the northeast corner of Connecticut Avenue and H Street in Washington, D.C. The historic mansion, built for William Wilson Corcoran in 1858, is a stunning example of Italianate architecture. The image showcases the home's impressive brick garden wall and portal, topped by a sculpture of a dog. The walled garden, a private retreat for the Corcoran family, adds to the mansion's allure and sense of exclusivity. The Corcoran House, designed by James Renwick Jr., is situated in the heart of the Dupont Circle neighborhood and was once the site of the Corcoran Gallery of Art. The gallery, founded by William Corcoran in 1869, is now part of the Smithsonian Institution and is known for its extensive collection of American art. This photograph, taken by Johnston, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and grandeur of the Corcoran House and its historic gardens. The image also highlights the quiet elegance of Washington, D.C. in the early 1900s, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of historic American architecture or Washington, D.C. imagery.
