Untermyer Garden, 1917
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph taken by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe. This image transports us back in time to the early 1910s in the United States, specifically to Yonkers, Westchester County, New York State. The photograph depicts the stunning Untermyer Garden, a masterpiece of garden design and architecture. The garden, created by the visionary landscape architect William Welles Bosworth for Samuel Untermyer, a prominent lawyer and philanthropist, is a breathtaking display of topiary, fountains, and geometric patterns. The photograph captures the tranquility of the scene, with the serene pond at the center reflecting the clear blue sky and the surrounding trees. The garden's walls and the people in the background add depth and a sense of scale to the image. The walled garden, with its intricate designs and carefully manicured topiary, is a testament to the meticulous care and attention to detail that went into its creation. The garden's design is a perfect blend of nature and art, making it a popular destination for visitors even today. This photograph, now held in the Library of Congress, is a valuable piece of heritage art and a testament to the beauty and elegance of the past. Taken on nitrate negative film, the image has a timeless quality that continues to captivate viewers, transporting them to a bygone era. The photograph's monochromatic palette, with its contrasting shades of white and black, adds to its visual appeal and makes it a must-see for anyone interested in garden design, architecture, or the history of America.
