Description
EDITH TEMPLE STANTON AT NORTHEAST CORNER OF THE WORKMAN HOUSE
Color: Blue; Green
A black and white reproduction photograph of Edith Temple Stanton at the northeast corner of the Workman House, ca. 1966. Mrs. Stanton, wearing a blue knee-length dress and carrying a black purse in her left hand, stands next to the corner of the house. Most of the walls are hidden in dense ivy, while the roof is visible. At the left next the house is a small tree or large bush and a flowering shrub. At the right supported by brown wood posts is the Lady Banks rose bush still at the front of the house today. Portions of two windows, one on the northwest and the other on the northeast wings, show through the ivy. A ost with light sconce, small patch of grass with a small rose bush in the middle of it, and dirt areas and sidewalks are also noticeable. On the upper reverse in blue ink, written probably by donor Loretta Berner is "Edith Temple Stanton / By the side of the / Workman House / 1966." At the lower left in blue ink is "37 [cents symbol] ea" Edith Stanton was the duaghter of John H. and Anita Davoust Temple and lived in the Workman House as a girl in the 1890s. In the 1960s, the site was owned by the Brown family, which used the home for offices. With little indication of damage and wear, the photo is in good condition.
