EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by the renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1917, showcases the breathtaking exterior of the Mrs. Francis Lemoine Loring house located at 700 South San Rafael Avenue in Pasadena, California. Originally designed by the esteemed architectural duo Myron Hunt and Elmer Grey for W.H. Bailey in 1906, this Italianate-style residence boasts an exquisite blend of brickwork and symmetrical design elements. The house, situated in the prestigious San Rafael Heights neighborhood, underwent a significant transformation in 1917 when Myron Hunt himself completed the landscaping, bringing the property to its current splendor. The photograph captures the essence of the era with its hand-colored, or hand-tinted, lantern slide image. The image reveals the house's grand staircase, adorned with an intricate balustrade, leading to the entrance. The brickwork, a testament to the craftsmanship of the time, is evident in the house's facade, as well as in the staircase and the surrounding garden walls. The symmetrical design of the property, with its balanced elements and beautiful garden, is a hallmark of the architectural mastery of Myron Hunt. This photograph, a part of the Frances Benjamin Johnston Collection at the Library of Congress, is a precious piece of American architectural and gardening history. It offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and elegance of a bygone era in Pasadena, California.
