EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide print, created by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1925, showcases the breathtaking beauty of Villa Lante in Bagnaia, Lazio, Italy. A masterpiece of 16th-century architecture, the villa was designed by Giacomo (Jacopo) Barozzi da Vignola, with landscaping contributions from Carlo Maderno. The villa, nestled in the rolling Italian countryside, is a prime example of Mannerist architecture. Barozzi da Vignola's innovative design is evident in the harmonious blend of classical elements, such as the Doric columns and intricate friezes, with the more modern, geometric forms. The villa's symmetrical facade, with its central loggia and twin towers, is a testament to the architect's vision and skill. The surrounding gardens and grounds, also designed by Barozzi da Vignola and Maderno, are a feast for the senses. The intricate water gardens, terraced hillsides, and winding paths create a sense of wonder and discovery. The villa's most iconic feature, the fountain of the Owl, is a highlight of the gardens, with its mythological creatures and intricate waterworks. Johnston's hand-colored lantern slide captures the essence of this historic site, allowing viewers to experience the timeless beauty of Villa Lante from the comfort of their own homes. The rich colors and intricate details bring the villa and its gardens to life, transporting us to the heart of Italy's architectural and artistic heritage.
