EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Aster (aster)" by Frances Benjamin Johnston, transports us back in time between the 1910s and the 1930s in America. The image, held in the prestigious Library of Congress, showcases a beautiful aster flower in full bloom, its velvety petals radiating out from the center in a stunning display of nature's splendor. Frances Benjamin Johnston (1864-1952), a renowned American photographer, captured this moment with exquisite detail and artistry. Known for her extensive work documenting historic sites and buildings across the United States, Johnston's ability to capture the essence of her subjects, whether man-made or natural, is truly remarkable. The aster, a beloved flower native to the Americas, is depicted here in its prime, standing tall against a simple, textured background. The soft focus and delicate tonalities in this lantern slide evoke a sense of tranquility and beauty, inviting us to appreciate the simple pleasures of the natural world. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era, a time when the beauty of the natural world was celebrated and cherished. The 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s were a period of great change and growth in America, and this image, with its timeless charm, offers a glimpse into the country's rich heritage and the beauty that continues to inspire us today.
