EDITORS COMMENTS
Planting Fields" William Robertson Coe House, located at 1395 Planting Fields Road in Oyster Bay, New York, is a stunning example of early 20th century American estate architecture. Captured in this photograph taken in 1926, the house was designed by Walker & Gillette between 1918 and 1921. The surrounding landscape was designed by James Frederick Dawson of the Olmsted Brothers firm, with additional contributions from Andrew Robeson Sargent and Guy Lowell for the tea house garden and tea house, which were completed in 1914-1916. The estate, which is now a historic site and arboretum, is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the American country estate during the 1910s and 1920s. The house is framed by lush, colorful gardens filled with vibrant flowers, flower beds, and pots. The reflecting pool adds to the serene and picturesque setting. The landscape design was executed by Lewis & Valentine, a New York-based company. James Frederick Dawson, of the renowned Olmsted Brothers firm, was responsible for the overall design of the estate's landscape. The Olmsted Brothers were known for their work on prominent American estates and public parks, including the famous Central Park in New York City. The photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, showcases the beauty and grandeur of the "Planting Fields" estate. Johnston was a prominent American photographer and architectural recordist, and her work is held in the Library of Congress. This particular photograph is part of a collection of lantern slides that were hand-colored between 1920 and 1930. The "Planting Fields" estate is a significant piece of American heritage and a reminder of the country's rich architectural and horticultural history. The estate's gardens and grounds continue to be a popular destination for visitors and a source of inspiration for gardeners and architects alike.
