EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Waveny," showcases the stunning Lewis Henry Lapham house located at 677 South Avenue in New Caanan, Connecticut, circa 1915. Designed by architect William Bunker Tubby and completed in 1912, this Italianate-style mansion is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the early 20th century. The house is nestled amidst lush gardens, meticulously designed by the Olmsted Brothers landscape architecture firm between 1907 and 1915. The photograph, hand-coloured by Frances Benjamin Johnston, showcases the house's intricate details, from the ornate columns and arches to the intricately designed roofline. The surrounding gardens, with their vibrant colors and meticulously manicured lawns, add to the serene beauty of the estate. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a renowned American photographer and architectural recordist, captured this image as part of her extensive documentation of historic buildings and gardens across the United States. The photograph is a valuable addition to the Library of Congress's collection, providing a glimpse into the past and showcasing the beauty and grandeur of American estates during the 1910s. The Waveny estate, with its impressive architecture and stunning gardens, continues to be a source of inspiration and a testament to the rich architectural and horticultural heritage of the United States.
