EDITORS COMMENTS
El Fureidis," also known as the James Waldron Gillespie house, is a stunning Italianate mansion located on Parra Grande Lane in Montecito, California, captured in this beautiful hand-colored lantern slide photograph taken in 1917. The architectural masterpiece was designed by the renowned firm of Cram, Goodhue & Ferguson, with Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue taking the lead. The construction of the house took place between 1905 and 1906, with Myron Hunt and Elmer Grey serving as supervising architects. The landscape design of "El Fureidis" was also the work of Cram, Goodhue & Ferguson, under the direction of Goodhue. The photograph showcases the house's beautiful reflection on the still water of the pond, surrounded by lush greenery and gardens. The Italianate influence is evident in the house's grandeur, with its stately columns, intricate stonework, and ornate details. The steps leading down to the water add an inviting touch to the scene. The lantern slide, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the elegance and beauty of this historic Montecito estate. The hand-tinted image adds a vibrant and colorful touch to the photograph, making it a true work of art. The reflection of the house on the water creates a sense of tranquility and serenity, making it a must-see for anyone interested in American architecture and garden design from the early 20th century. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of heritage art, showcasing the beauty and history of Montecito, California, and the United States as a whole.
