EDITORS COMMENTS
- John Wesley Baxter House, Dublin and Hill Roads, Greenwich, Connecticut, 1920 This photograph, titled "Quiet Corner," showcases the stunning John Wesley Baxter house, located at the intersection of Dublin and Hill Roads in Greenwich, Connecticut. The image, captured in the year 1920, was created by the renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. The house, a masterpiece of early 20th-century architecture, was designed by Benjamin William Morris for William Clyde Fitch and was completed around December 1903. Later additions to the house were made by its owner, John Wesley Baxter. The photograph presents a serene and picturesque scene of the house, nestled amidst a tranquil winter landscape. The snow-covered trees and twinkling lanterns add to the wintry charm, while the hand-tinted colors bring the scene to life. The amphora and urns, placed strategically around the garden, add a touch of classical elegance to the setting. The garden design, which is thoughtfully integrated into the landscape, is a testament to the art of gardening during the 1920s in America. The trees, plants, and seasonal elements create a harmonious balance between nature and architecture. This photograph, with its rich history and beautiful composition, is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress. It offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the charm and elegance of a bygone era in American history. The "Quiet Corner" photograph is a reminder of the beauty and tranquility that can be found in the simplest of scenes, and the enduring allure of American heritage and history.
