Pre's Choisis,
EDITORS COMMENTS
named after its first owner, Mrs. Prellwitz, is a stunning example of early 20th century American architecture, located at Georgica Pond in East Hampton, New York. The house, designed by Grovesnor Atterbury in 1898-1899, is a beautiful blend of the 19th and 20th centuries. The image, captured by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston around 1913, showcases the house's picturesque surroundings and the harmonious relationship between the building and its natural environment. The landscape design, a collaborative effort between Adele McGinnis (Mrs. Albert Herter) and Albert Herter from 1898, is equally impressive. The flower beds, brimming with vibrant blooms, frame the house and lead the eye to the serene reflecting pool and fountain. The bench, placed strategically near the water feature, invites visitors to pause and take in the tranquil beauty of the scene. The setting, with its lush greenery, colorful flowers, and the calming waters of Georgica Pond, transports us to a bygone era. The image, taken from the Library of Congress' collection of lantern slides hand-colored between 1910 and 1920, is a testament to the enduring charm of this historic estate. The image, titled "Pre's Choisis, Albert Herter house, Georgica Pond, East Hampton, New York, c1913," is a visual delight, showcasing the elegance and grace of a bygone era. This photograph is a reminder of the rich architectural and horticultural heritage of the United States, particularly in the Hamptons of Southampton, Suffolk County, New York State. The image, taken from the shores of Georgica Pond, is a still image of a time long past, but its beauty and allure continue to captivate and inspire us today.
