EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1925, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Villa d'Este in Tivoli, Lazio, Italy. The 16th-century villa, designed by architect Pirro Ligorio for Cardinal Ippolito II d'Este, is a testament to the grandeur of the Renaissance period. The meticulously crafted architecture, with its intricate details and hand-tinted colors, is complemented by the stunning landscaped grounds. The photograph offers a unique perspective, with a focus on the grand staircase leading up to the villa. The steps, adorned with ornate plant pots and fountains, seem to cascade down the hillside, merging seamlessly with the lush greenery and terraced gardens. The vibrant colors of the plants and flowers, contrasting against the muted tones of the stone architecture, add an element of nature to this historic site. The image, taken during the 1920s, is a testament to Johnston's ability to capture the essence of a place and transport viewers to another time and place. The lantern slide, with its intricate details and hand-colored elements, is a valuable addition to the vast collection of historical and architectural photographs at the Library of Congress.
