EDITORS COMMENTS
Weld," the Larz Anderson house, located at 151 Newton Street in the affluent town of Brookline, Massachusetts, is a captivating example of early 20th century American architecture. The residence, built in 1899, underwent modifications by architects Little & Browne around 1914, resulting in the elegant and refined appearance seen in this photograph. The house is named after its original owner, Larz Anderson, a prominent diplomat and art collector. The Italian Garden, designed by Charles Adams Platt, is a striking feature of the estate. Planted and built between late 1899 and 1900-1901, the garden is a testament to the opulence and sophistication of the era. Platt, a renowned landscape architect, created a serene and picturesque space filled with evergreens, colorful flowers, and intricate details. The photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston around the 1920s, showcases the house's stunning entrance. The hand-colored image highlights the intricate details of the gatepost, pillars, and lantern, adding to the overall allure of the property. The garden path, leading to the entrance, is framed by lush greenery and invites the viewer to explore the beauty of the estate. Isabel Weld Perkins, the wife of Larz Anderson, is often credited with the preservation and maintenance of the estate's gardens. The couple's love for art and nature is evident in the meticulously designed space, which remains a beloved landmark in Brookline, Massachusetts, and a significant piece of American architectural and gardening history. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, is a beautiful representation of the Weld-Anderson house and its stunning Italian Garden. The hand-colored image, now part of the Library of Congress collection, offers a glimpse into the elegance and sophistication of early 20th century American estate living.
