EDITORS COMMENTS
Marshfield," the George Woodward Wickersham house, located in Cedarhurst, New York, was captured in this stunning photograph taken around 1915 by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. The house, designed by the architectural firm Foster, Gade & Graham, is a beautiful example of early 20th-century country estate architecture. The property is situated in Nassau County, New York, United States, and is nestled among lush greenery, a serene lake, and a picturesque Japanese garden. The landscape design was the work of Mary Rutherfurd Jay, completed in 1914. The photograph showcases the estate's grandeur, with its sprawling lawns, towering trees, and a tranquil pond adorned with a traditional Japanese lantern. The bridge arching over the pond adds an element of elegance and mystery, inviting the viewer to explore the grounds further. The estate's exterior boasts intricate details, from the ornate columns to the meticulously crafted stonework. The house stands proudly against the backdrop of the natural beauty of its surroundings, showcasing the harmonious relationship between man-made structures and the natural world. This photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of American estate architecture and landscape gardening during the 1910s. The image, hand-colored from a lantern slide, has been preserved in the Library of Congress, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the beauty and elegance of bygone eras.
