Thornewood,
EDITORS COMMENTS
the magnificent estate of Chester Thorne, located in Lakewood, Washington, is captured in this stunning photograph taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1923. The house, designed by architect Kirtland Kelsey Cutter and built between 1909 and 1911, is a testament to the grandeur of the early 20th century. The estate's landscaping, masterfully designed by the Olmsted Brothers, James Frederick Dawson and John Charles Olmsted, between 1908 and 1913, adds to the estate's breathtaking beauty. The photograph showcases the house's impressive exterior, with its intricate stonework, tall chimneys, and elegant columns. The flower bed in front of the house, filled with blooming flowers, adds a pop of color to the otherwise monochrome scene. A winding path leading to the lake and a lantern on the left side of the house add to the estate's charm and allure. This image is a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when grand estates and beautiful gardens were a symbol of wealth and status. The Thornewood estate, with its rich history and stunning architecture, is a testament to the heritage and horticulture of the United States during the 1920s. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, is a valuable addition to the Library of Congress's collection and a reminder of the beauty and elegance of America's past.
