EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide image, created by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1925, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Villa Gamberaia in Settignano, Tuscany, Italy. The villa, originally designed by Italian architect Zanobi Lapi between 1610 and 1630, is nestled amidst the rolling hills of the Italian countryside. The villa's architectural grandeur is evident in the intricate details of its stone facade, with its ornate windows and terracotta roof tiles. The landscape surrounding the villa is equally enchanting. The terraced gardens, designed by Zanobi Lapi and others, cascade down the hillside, leading the eye to the shimmering pool at the bottom. The garden's lush greenery, including tree-lined paths and tree trunks adorned with moss and vines, creates a sense of tranquility and serenity. The villa's grounds also feature a water terrace on the south parterre, which was created by Princess Jeanne Ghyka and Martino Porcinai in 1896. The terrace's centerpiece is a stunning bird bath, which adds to the garden's natural beauty. In 1925, the villa was owned by Baroness Clemens August von Ketteler, who no doubt appreciated the villa's rich history and the natural splendor of its surroundings. This hand-coloured lantern slide image, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, captures the essence of the villa and its gardens, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the timeless beauty of Italy.
