EDITORS COMMENTS
the James Hobart Moore house, located on East Valley Road in Montecito, California, is a stunning example of early 20th century architecture and landscaping. Captured in this beautiful lantern slide photograph taken in 1917, the house is shrouded in lush greenery and vibrant flowers, showcasing the meticulous gardening work of W. Stanley Davis, who tended to the grounds until 1916. The house itself, with its intricate architectural details, is believed to have been designed by the renowned architect Stanford White, although the exact architect is unknown. James Hobart Moore acquired the property, then known as "Field Place," from its original owners, Dr. Alexander Blair Thaw and Mrs. Florence Dow Thaw, in 1906. The photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, highlights the picturesque arbor and archway, adorned with climbing plants and roses, leading to a charming rose garden.

The image is a testament to the rich heritage of American architecture and gardening during this era. The scene is filled with a sense of tranquility and serenity, transporting us back in time to a period when nature and beauty were at the forefront of design and living. The intricate details of the architecture, the lush greenery, and the vibrant flowers all come together to create a breathtaking tableau that is both timeless and captivating. This photograph is a treasure trove of history, showcasing the beauty and elegance of a bygone era, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our architectural and horticultural heritage for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
