EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide, created by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1925, showcases the breathtaking Villa Aldobrandini in Frascati, Lazio, Italy. The Villa, a masterpiece of Baroque architecture, was designed by architects Giacomo della Porta and Carlo Maderno between 1598 and 1603. The image captures the villa's grand entrance, framed by intricately designed gateposts and a circular gate, leading to the beautifully landscaped grounds. The hand-coloured photograph highlights the villa's unique circular shape, with its impressive lantern atop the dome, casting an ethereal glow over the property. The gardens, designed by the same architects, are a harmonious blend of formal and natural elements, adding to the villa's timeless beauty. This photograph is a testament to the rich heritage and historical significance of Italian architecture during the Baroque era, and a stunning representation of Johnston's skill as a photographer. The image was taken during the 1920s, a time when European travel was popular among Americans, and the Villa Aldobrandini became a must-see destination for tourists. Today, this photograph remains an important historical record and a visual delight, transporting us to a bygone era and a beautiful corner of Italy.
