EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph is a reproduction of the Axarian Pleasure Garden in Saint Petersburg, Russia, as captured by American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston between 1915 and 1925. The image showcases a formal garden scene, adorned with intricately designed statues and topiary, reminiscent of a copper plate engraving from the workshop of Giovanni Antonio Remondini in Bassano, Italy, dating back to the 18th century. The garden, which could be a parterre or knot garden, is filled with lush greenery, meticulously trimmed hedges, and ornate sculptures. The presence of lanterns and a vanishing point in the distance suggests that this was a popular tourist attraction, drawing visitors from around the world. At the time, Saint Petersburg was known as Petrograd or Leningrad, and was part of the USSR. Despite the political changes, the garden remained a cherished piece of heritage art, showcasing the enduring beauty and elegance of European garden design. Frances Benjamin Johnston was a renowned American photographer, known for her documentation of historic sites and gardens in the United States. Her travels to Europe allowed her to capture the beauty and grandeur of gardens from around the world, including this enchanting scene from the Axarian Pleasure Garden in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
