EDITORS COMMENTS
The Orchard" at 151 Hill Street in Southampton, New York, is a stunning example of early 20th century American architecture and landscape design. Captured in this photograph taken in 1912, the James Lawrence Breese house was designed by the renowned architectural firm McKim, Mead & White between 1898 and 1907. The house's exterior exudes elegance with its red brick facade, intricate stonework, and ornate balconies. The architects' meticulous attention to detail is evident in the harmonious blend of the building's industrial elements, such as the brick and stone, with the organic beauty of the surrounding landscape. The landscape design, also by McKim, Mead & White, complements the house perfectly. The lush, green gardens are adorned with colorful flowers, sculptures, and a beautiful fountain. The orchard, as suggested by the name, adds a rustic touch to the estate, with its mature trees and fruit-bearing branches. The image transports us back to a time when grandeur and nature coexisted harmoniously. Frances Benjamin Johnston, the photographer, captured this moment in time with her skillful use of light and composition. Her lantern slides, hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, are a testament to her artistic vision and dedication to preserving the architectural and cultural heritage of America. This photograph is now part of the Library of Congress' collection, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the beauty and elegance of a bygone era. The James Lawrence Breese house in Southampton, New York, stands as a symbol of the opulence and refinement of the early 20th century. Its timeless design and stunning landscape continue to inspire and captivate us, making it an essential piece of American architectural and artistic history.
