EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Waveny," showcases the stunning Lewis Henry Lapham house located at 677 South Avenue in New Caanan, Connecticut, circa 1915. The architectural masterpiece was designed by William Bunker Tubby and constructed in 1912. The landscape design, a collaborative effort between John Charles Olmsted and the Olmsted Brothers, was initiated in 1907 and continued until 1915. The image, hand-coloured and tinted, transports us back to the 1910s, capturing the essence of an era long past. The house, surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant herbaceous borders, sits proudly amidst the picturesque landscape. The intricate crazy paving path leading to the house adds to its charm, inviting us to explore further. Frances Benjamin Johnston, the renowned American photographer and architectural record-keeper, captured this moment in time. Her keen eye for detail and appreciation for heritage art is evident in the meticulously hand-coloured lantern slide. The photograph features a hollyhock in full bloom, its petals unfurling against the backdrop of the stately home. The Waveny estate, with its beautiful gardens and landscaping, is a testament to the fusion of architectural grandeur and natural beauty. This photograph, a piece of our shared heritage, invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the beauty of the built and natural environment.
