Villa Rose,
EDITORS COMMENTS
located at 2260 Redington Road in Hillsborough, California, was the elegant residence of Joseph Donahoe Grant and his wife, Edith Macleay Grant. Completed in 1912, the house was designed by architect Lewis Parsons Hobart, who also collaborated with Edith on the landscaping of the property. The Italianate-style villa, later known as "Strawberry Hill," boasts beautiful gardens that are as captivating as the house itself. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a renowned American photographer and architectural recordist, immortalized the beauty of "Villa Rose" in this hand-tinted lantern slide from the 1910s. The image showcases the villa's stunning red-tiled roof, arched windows, and intricate stonework. The property's lush gardens are equally impressive, with a vibrant herbaceous border bursting with colorful flowers. The landscape design, a collaboration between Hobart and Edith Grant, features a walled garden, which adds to the villa's secluded and romantic atmosphere. The gardens at "Villa Rose" are a testament to the couple's appreciation for nature and their commitment to creating a beautiful and serene environment. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when elegant villas and beautiful gardens dotted the hills of Hillsborough, California. The hand-colored image, part of the Library of Congress's collection, is a valuable record of the rich architectural and horticultural heritage of the United States during the early 20th century.
