EDITORS COMMENTS
Waveny," the magnificent estate of Lewis Henry Lapham, located at 677 South Avenue in New Caanan, Connecticut, was captured in this stunning photograph taken around 1915. The house, designed by architect William Bunker Tubby and completed in 1912, is a beautiful example of Italianate architecture. The estate's landscape was masterfully designed by the renowned Olmsted Brothers firm, with work beginning in 1907 and continuing until 1915. The photograph, hand-coloured by Frances Benjamin Johnston, showcases the estate's symmetrical design, with the house's grand facade reflecting in the still, tranquil pond. The estate's gardens, meticulously planned and executed, feature a variety of colorful flowers and foliage, adding to the overall beauty and serenity of the scene. At the heart of the estate is a large, ornate fountain, which serves as a focal point for the gardens and adds to the estate's sense of grandeur. The lantern-lit pathways and the elegant stone lanterns lining the gardens add to the estate's romantic and timeless appeal. The estate, now known as Waveny Park, is a testament to the beauty and elegance of American estate living during the early 20th century. The photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, captures the essence of this historic estate and provides a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time of grace and refinement. This photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American estate and garden photography, and its hand-coloured, hand-tinted lantern slide format adds to its historical significance and visual appeal.
