EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston around the turn of the 20th century, showcases the elegant interior of Phoebe Apperson Hearst's residence at 1400 New Hampshire Avenue NW in Washington, D.C. Phoebe, a philanthropist, feminist, and suffragist, was the widow of George Hearst and a significant figure in American society during this era. The photograph offers a glimpse into the opulence of the home, with its grand stairway serving as the focal point. The intricately designed banisters, adorned with delicate carvings, curve gracefully up the staircase, leading the eye to the ornate ceiling panels above. The soft, Persian carpet beneath the stairway adds a touch of warmth and luxury to the space. Phoebe Hearst was known for her refined taste and her commitment to education and social causes. She was the founder of the University of California Museum of Anthropology and a co-founder of the National Parent-Teacher Association. The interior of her home reflects her sophisticated sensibilities, with its carefully chosen furnishings and thoughtful design. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and elegance of the past, and a reminder of the remarkable woman who once called this historic residence her home.
