EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1926 and 1950, showcases the grand entrance hall of "The Rocks," the esteemed residence of Mr. and Mrs. Pierre Gaillard, located at 1940 Shepherd Street N.W., Washington, D.C. The image, created by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, transports us back in time to the elegant 1920s. The spacious entrance hall is adorned with an intricately designed staircase, framed by ornate balustrades and newel posts. The grandeur of the room is further accentuated by the presence of a stately grandfather clock, its pendulum swinging steadily, marking the passage of time. The room's interior design is a testament to the opulence and sophistication of the era, with a plush rug covering the polished hardwood floor and tastefully decorated walls. The Rocks, built in 1926, is a magnificent mansion that embodies the rich architectural heritage of Washington, D.C. The empty room, bathed in soft natural light, invites us to imagine the lively conversations and social gatherings that once took place within its walls. This photograph, a precious gem from the 20th century, is a reminder of the enduring beauty and history of American architecture.
