EDITORS COMMENTS
Rock Rose," the Edward K. Rowland house, located at 200 Pine Tree Road in Radnor, Pennsylvania, was captured in this stunning photograph taken in 1920 by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. The house, designed by the architectural firm Zantziner, Borie & Medary, is a beautiful example of Palladian architecture that embodies the elegance and sophistication of the 1920s. The estate, which was once part of the Pennsylvania German colony, is nestled among lush greenery and features a stunning terrace that overlooks the picturesque landscape. The house's exterior is adorned with intricate stonework and detailed architectural elements, including a Palladian pavilion and a graceful lantern-topped stone wall. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering American photographer, captured the essence of this historic estate with her expert use of light and composition. Her hand-colored lantern slides from the 1910s to the 1930s, like this one, are a testament to her artistic vision and her significant contribution to the documentation of American architecture and cultural heritage. The photograph also showcases the beautiful gardens that surround the estate, with the "Rock Rose" in full bloom, adding a burst of color and charm to the scene. The estate's name is derived from the abundance of rock roses that grow on the property, adding to its unique character and charm. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American architecture and cultural history. It provides a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of elegance and refinement, and serves as a reminder of the rich architectural heritage that exists in Pennsylvania and beyond. The Library of Congress holds a vast collection of Frances Benjamin Johnston's work, including this photograph, which is available for research and study by scholars, historians, and anyone interested in American history and architecture.
