Glendessary,
EDITORS COMMENTS
the Robert Cameron Rogers house, located at Glendessary Lane in Santa Barbara, California, is a captivating example of Mission Revival architecture from the early 20th century. Designed by Samuel Illsley and built in 1899, the house was constructed using Mission Canyon stone and showcases intricate details reminiscent of Italianate design. The house's exterior is adorned with cypress trees, which add to its picturesque charm and blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape. The landscape design of "Glendessary" is a testament to the vision of Peter Poole, a local stone mason, and his brother Thomas Poole, a gardener. Their collaboration began in 1900, and their work on the property is evident in the meticulously manicured gardens and the thoughtful placement of various plants and trees. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a renowned American photographer and architectural recordist, captured this image of "Glendessary" in 1917. The hand-colored lantern slide showcases the house's architectural beauty and the serene atmosphere of the gardens. The cypress trees, with their distinctive silhouettes, frame the house and add to the sense of tranquility and harmony between the structure and its natural surroundings. This image, taken during the 1910s, is a valuable document of the architectural and horticultural heritage of Santa Barbara, California. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of Mission Revival architecture and the importance of preserving the natural beauty of the American landscape. The Library of Congress holds this lantern slide in its collection, making it an essential resource for scholars, architects, and enthusiasts of American history and heritage. This image invites us to appreciate the rich architectural and horticultural legacy of the United States and the beauty of the natural world that surrounds us.
