EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Gray Gardens," showcases the stunning Robert Carmer Hill house located on Lily Pond Lane in East Hampton, New York, circa 1914. The architectural masterpiece, designed by Joseph Greenleaf Thorp in 1897, stands proudly amidst the lush, verdant landscape. The estate's namesake, Anna Gilman (Mrs. Robert C.) Hill, is renowned for her exceptional gardening skills, as evidenced by the meticulously tended grounds. The image, captured by the renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, offers a glimpse into the idyllic, picturesque setting of the country estate. The house, with its stately columns and grandeur, is a testament to the opulence of the era. The serene pond, teeming with life, adds a sense of tranquility to the scene. A dovecote, perched atop the estate, is home to a flock of doves, adding a touch of whimsy and charm to the already enchanting setting. The lantern slides, hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, further enhance the image's vibrant colors and details. This photograph is a beautiful representation of the rich heritage and history of American estates during the 1910s. The Library of Congress houses this precious piece of history, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and elegance of a bygone era. The image invites us to imagine the sounds of birds chirping, the gentle breeze rustling through the trees, and the serene stillness of the pond. A true work of art, "Gray Gardens" is a testament to the enduring allure of the American countryside.
