EDITORS COMMENTS
The Pavilion" at the Stephen Hyatt Pelham Pell house in Fort Ticonderoga, New York, captured in this stunning 1927 photograph by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history and picturesque beauty of this iconic site. The photograph showcases the walled King's Garden, which was established in 1757 by Captain de Pontieroy of the French Army, Chief of Engineers to the Marquis de Montcalm. Nestled within the garden's protective walls, a variety of colorful flowers thrive, including climbing plants that gracefully cascade over the garden's stone walls. The garden's sign, visible in the foreground, proudly proclaims its royal origins as "Le Jardin du Roi." This photograph, taken during the 1920s, transports us back in time to the 18th century, when Fort Ticonderoga played a pivotal role in the French and British struggle for control of North America. The garden's meticulous design and the serene atmosphere it exudes are a testament to the enduring appeal of nature and the importance of preserving our heritage. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering figure in American landscape photography, captured this image as part of her extensive documentation of historic sites across the United States. Her masterful use of light and color in this hand-colored lantern slide further enhances the garden's allure, inviting us to imagine the sights, sounds, and scents of this enchanting place. This photograph is a treasure in the Library of Congress's extensive collection, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the importance of preserving our nation's history and natural beauty for future generations to enjoy.
