EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Fountain, Villa Laute, Viterbo, Italy," was captured by the renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston between 1910 and 1925. The image transports us back in time to the picturesque Italian countryside, specifically to the stunning grounds of Villa Laute in Viterbo. Villa Laute, a magnificent Italian country house, was designed by the celebrated architect Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola in the 16th century. Barozzi da Vignola, a leading figure of the Mannerist movement, is known for his innovative and harmonious architectural designs. The photograph showcases a beautiful fountain situated in the villa's lush gardens. The fountain's central feature is a mythical creature, believed to be Pegasus, the winged horse from Greek mythology. The intricate details of the fountain's sculpture are on full display in this photograph, with the water cascading down the mythical beast's body, creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere. The equestrian theme continues throughout the villa's grounds, with various statues and architectural elements showcasing riders and horses. The photograph also highlights the harmonious blend of the villa's architecture with its natural surroundings, as the buildings seamlessly integrate into the landscape. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Italy and the artistic vision of Frances Benjamin Johnston. It provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the beauty and elegance of a bygone era.
