EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Lowery House, 1890s. Dining room with table set," is an enduring testament to the grandeur of the late 19th century American South. Taken by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the 1890s, this image offers a glimpse into the elegant interior of the Lowery House, located in Washington D.C., District of Columbia, United States of America. The dining room, filled with exquisite furniture and ornate decor, is bathed in soft, natural light filtering through the doorway. The long, mahogany dining table, adorned with a pristine white tablecloth, is set with fine china and crystal glassware, ready for a formal dinner. The room's centerpiece is a magnificent chandelier, its crystals casting a warm, inviting glow over the space. The dresser against the wall is adorned with delicate porcelain figurines and an intricately patterned vase, adding to the room's refined ambiance. The walls, adorned with intricate wallpaper and wainscoting, showcase the meticulous attention to detail that characterized the interior design of the era. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering American photographer, captured this image as part of her extensive documentation of historic buildings and interiors. Her cyanotype process, popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, produced the striking monochromatic tones that add to the timeless quality of this photograph. The Lowery House, a mansion of distinguished heritage, stands as a symbol of the opulence and sophistication of the American South during the 19th century. This photograph, now housed in the Library of Congress, offers a captivating window into the past, inviting us to explore the history and culture of a bygone era.
