Brookside,
EDITORS COMMENTS
located at Brookside Road in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, is a stunning example of early 20th-century American estate architecture. Captured in this photograph taken around 1916, the house was designed by the renowned architectural firm Carre`re & Hastings in 1910 with later additions and alterations in 1912 for William Hall Walker. The house's elegant design is further enhanced by the boat landing, which was the brainchild of architect Walter Bradnee Kirby. The estate's landscape was masterfully crafted by Ferruccio Vitale between 1912 and 1918. The photograph showcases the garden casino and terrace, where one can find intricate details and hand-tinted colors that bring the scene to life. The serene lake in the background adds to the tranquil ambiance of the estate. The jetty and boat landing are situated at the lakeside, providing a picturesque setting for boating activities. The estate's proximity to the lake and its surrounding natural beauty makes it an idyllic retreat. The hand-colored lantern slide, taken from the Library of Congress, showcases the estate's grandeur and the attention to detail that went into its design and landscaping. The estate's terrace offers a breathtaking view of the lake and the surrounding landscape, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and enjoyment. The swans gliding gracefully on the lake add to the estate's charm and natural beauty. This photograph is a testament to the rich architectural and historical heritage of Great Barrington, Massachusetts, and the United States as a whole. The estate's timeless design and stunning landscape continue to captivate viewers and inspire awe.
