EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Study with portrait of woman in Elizabethan dress, over fireplace," was captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1908 at the Conyers Farm estate in Greenwich, Connecticut. The estate, designed by architect Donn Barber in 1904, was the residence of businessman Edmund C. Converse. The photograph showcases the elegant interior of the estate, with the eye drawn to the ornate fireplace, above which hangs a portrait of a woman dressed in an Elizabethan gown. The fireplace is adorned with an intricately designed firescreen, adding to the richness of the scene. To the right, a curved sofa invites relaxation, its soft furnishings providing a stark contrast to the hard edges of the fireplace and the dark wood of the room's other furnishings. The room exudes an air of opulence and sophistication, reflecting the wealth and taste of its owner. The use of soft curtains and the delicate painting on the wall add to the sense of indoor tranquility, making this a perfect setting for study or contemplation. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and grandeur of early 20th century American architecture and interior design. It is a snapshot in time, capturing the essence of a bygone era and offering a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy elite during the 1910s in the United States.
