2023.211.017Description
Image #17. Photograph emphasizes the relationship between the house and the landscape. In this photograph, there is only a suggestion of the house, as indicated by the white bannister and edge of the building on the far left of the photograph. Hartshorn oversaw the development of his properties to ensure that each house had a proper vista. The photograph suggests that the landscape, and not the architecture, is the important aspect of life in Short Hills.
