Villa Rose,
EDITORS COMMENTS
also known as "Strawberry Hill," is a historic house located at 2260 Redington Road in Hillsborough, California. This stunning residence was designed by architect Lewis Parsons Hobart and completed in 1912 for Joseph Donahoe Grant and his wife, Edith Macleay Grant. The photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1917, captures the beauty and elegance of the property in black and white. The house, with its distinctive red tile roof and white stucco exterior, is surrounded by lush gardens and a walled garden, which were also designed by Lewis Parsons Hobart and Edith Macleay Grant. The gardens feature a variety of plants and trees, including roses, camellias, and azaleas, which add to the property's charm and allure. Villa Rose was named for the abundance of strawberries that grew in the area during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The house and gardens are a testament to the grandeur and sophistication of the era, and have been preserved as an important piece of California and American history. Frances Benjamin Johnston was a prominent American photographer and architectural recordist, known for her documentation of historic houses and gardens. Her photograph of Villa Rose is a valuable addition to the Library of Congress's collection of photographic prints from the 1910s, and serves as a reminder of the beauty and elegance of the past. This image is a timeless piece of American heritage, showcasing the architectural and horticultural achievements of the early 20th century. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our history and the beauty of our past for future generations to enjoy.
