EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph, captured around 1903, showcases the historic Morris-Jumel Mansion located in Washington Heights, Manhattan, New York. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time over a century ago. The Morris-Jumel Mansion, a National Historic Landmark, is the oldest house in Manhattan and holds significant historical importance. Built in 1765, the mansion was originally owned by British Colonel Roger Morris and later passed through various hands, including that of General Rufus King and the prominent Jumel family. The mansion's elegant exterior, adorned with intricate glasswork and detailed architectural features, stands proudly against the backdrop of the lush, green grounds. The image, a silver gelatin glass transparency, captures the mansion's timeless beauty and the serene atmosphere of its surroundings. The mansion, now a museum and historic house, has been preserved and maintained to showcase its rich history and cultural significance. It is a testament to the country's architectural heritage and a reminder of the diverse stories and people that have shaped the United States. The photograph, although taken over a century ago, continues to capture the essence of this historic landmark and invites us to explore its fascinating past.
