EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide, titled "Field of poppies and lupin, California, 1917," is a stunning testament to the natural beauty of the American landscape during the early 20th century. The image was captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, who skillfully hand-tinted this photograph to bring out the vibrant colors of the poppies and lupins in this meadow. The scene unfolds in the sun-drenched countryside of California, with the golden poppies and the brilliant blue lupins creating a breathtaking contrast against the green grass. The serene landscape, dotted with wildflowers, evokes a sense of tranquility and wonder. This photograph is a visual representation of the rich heritage and natural diversity of the United States, showcasing the beauty of its wildflowers in their natural habitat. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prolific photographer and architectural recordist, captured this image as part of her extensive documentation of American history and culture. Her work, which includes over 13,000 photographs, is now housed in the Library of Congress, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and history enthusiasts. This hand-colored lantern slide, which dates back to the 1910s, is a reminder of the past and a celebration of the natural beauty that continues to inspire us today. The image invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of nature and the enduring allure of the American landscape.
