EDITORS COMMENTS
The Causeway" at the James Parmelee house, located at 3100 Macomb Street in Washington, D.C., is a stunning example of early 20th century American architecture, captured in this photograph taken by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1919. The image showcases the grandeur and sophistication of the era, with its intricate interior design and architectural details. The photograph features a long, narrow corridor, or "causeway," which leads the eye towards the back of the house. The corridor is flanked by elegant columns, their classical design adding a sense of grandeur to the space. The columns support a second-story balcony, creating an open and airy feel. The corridor's floor is covered in a beautiful, intricately patterned rug, while the walls are adorned with exquisite interior decoration. The James Parmelee house, also known as Tregaron, was designed by Charles A. Platt and completed in 1912. Platt was a prominent American architect known for his designs of country houses and estates. The house was named after the Parmelee family, who were prominent in Washington, D.C. society at the time. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time of elegance and refinement. The image is a valuable historical record of the James Parmelee house and the architectural trends of the early 20th century. It is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, a testament to its historical significance. The photograph's composition, with its use of perspective and framing, invites the viewer to explore the space and imagine the lives of those who once called this beautiful house their home. The pillars, rug, and seating all contribute to the overall sense of comfort and luxury, making this image a true treasure of American architectural history.
