EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1927, showcases the exterior of Mary Ball Washington house located at 1200 Charles Street in Fredericksburg, Virginia. The house, built in 1761 with later additions, is bathed in the soft glow of the 1920s era as it stands proudly against the backdrop of a lush, flowering garden. The historic residence, adorned with intricate details and classic architectural elements, is a testament to the rich heritage and history of the United States. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneer in documentary photography, captured the essence of this beautiful building with her keen eye and artistic flair. The image, hand-colored in the lantern slide format popular during the 1920s and 1930s, showcases the vibrant colors of the flowering plants and gardens that surround the house. The lantern slide, now part of the collections at the Library of Congress, is a stunning example of the horticultural beauty and outdoor splendor of the early 20th century in America. The Mary Ball Washington house, named for the mother of George Washington, is a significant historical site in Fredericksburg, Virginia. This photograph not only offers a glimpse into the past, but also serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our nation's heritage and the natural beauty that surrounds us.
