El Fureidis,

EDITORS COMMENTS
the James Waldron Gillespie house, located at Parra Grande Lane in Montecito, California, was completed between 1905 and 1906 under the architectural guidance of Bertram Grovesnor Goodhue with Cram, Goodhue & Ferguson. Myron Hunt and Elmer Grey served as supervising architects for this magnificent residence. The image captured by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1917 showcases the house's exquisite interior design, which was also the work of Goodhue and his team. The photograph reveals a cozy living room adorned with rich Persian carpets, soft furnishings, and intricately designed furniture. The room's focal point is the grand fireplace, featuring an impressive mantelpiece that exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The fireplace's ornate design is reminiscent of Persian influences, fittingly aligning with the name "El Fureidis," which means "the Persian paradise." The room's interior design is further accentuated by the presence of a plush chair, inviting guests to relax and enjoy the warm ambiance of the space. The carpet's intricate patterns and the fireplace's chimneypiece add to the room's overall charm and character, making it a testament to the architectural and design prowess of the time. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, is a snapshot of the opulence and grandeur of the early 20th century American lifestyle. The image is part of the Frances Benjamin Johnston Collection at the Library of Congress, providing a valuable record of the country's architectural and design heritage. The El Fureidis house stands as a symbol of the era's appreciation for beauty, craftsmanship, and attention to detail, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of American architecture and interior design.
