EDITORS COMMENTS
Rock Rose," located at 200 Pine Tree Road in Radnor, Pennsylvania, is a stunning example of early 20th century American estate architecture. Captured in this exquisite photograph by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1920, the Edward K. Rowland house showcases the elegant design of Zantziner, Borie & Medary. The Palladian-inspired architecture is evident in the house's symmetrical facade, complete with a central pavilion and grand steps leading up to the entrance. The estate's name, "Rock Rose," is derived from the abundant rock roses that once adorned the property's gardens. The gardens, which are not visible in this image, were designed by Lucile Stewart Carter, a prominent figure in the American garden design movement of the time. This photograph is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of Pennsylvania, which was once part of the Pennsylvania Colony. The house's Pennsylvania German influences are evident in its raised foundation and traditional gambrel roofline. The image also captures the essence of the 1920s, a time of prosperity and elegance in American history. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a renowned American photographer, captured this image as part of her extensive collection of lantern slides hand-colored between 1910 and 1930. Her work is now housed in the Library of Congress, making this photograph an invaluable addition to the historical record of American architecture and garden design. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and elegance of American estates from a bygone era.
