Sylvester Manor, Cornelia Horsford House, Shelter Island, New York, c1915: A Timeless Beauty of American Architecture and Gardens This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the early 1900s, showcases the exquisite Cornelia Horsford House at Sylvester Manor on Shelter Island, New York. Built in 1735, this historic house is the second one to grace the site, and it stands as a testament to the rich heritage of American architecture. The image transports us back in time to the 18th century, where we can appreciate the rustic charm of the rural countryside. The house, with its weathered exterior and intricately designed fence, is surrounded by a lush garden filled with vibrant flowers. The fence posts, adorned with colorful flowerbeds and plants, add to the picturesque scene. Johnston's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the way she captures the essence of the location. The lantern slides, hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, bring out the rich hues of the garden and the house, adding depth and texture to the image. The Cornelia Horsford House at Sylvester Manor is a prime example of the regionalism movement in American architecture and gardening. Its enduring beauty and historical significance make it a must-see destination for anyone interested in the country's heritage and the evolution of American architecture and gardening. This photograph, taken over a century ago, continues to inspire and captivate us with its timeless charm and the beauty of the natural world it represents. The image is a treasure in the Library of Congress's collection, reminding us of the importance of preserving our history and the natural world for future generations.
