“The Red Rose" 
THE KITCHEN WING OF THE HOUSE 
Art in its most subtle, refining sense 
breathes through every surrounding of “ The 
Red Rose.” Its effects are not artificial but 
natural. A rustic arbor gives a welcome of 
THE BARN FROM THE FORECOURT 
shade at the entrance-porch of the house 
where a guest is likely to rest upon a quaint 
settle amid a bower of vines. Before him 
a little wicket gate leads from the top of 
several steps into the studio. 
Magnificent clumps of hardy, 
flowering shrubbery fill the 
space surrounding the stables 
and leading to the old barn 
which rises in a grandeur of 
whitewash far above the roof 
of the dwelling. Vines bedeck 
the stone wall of an inner 
court, and wreathing the eaves 
of the roofs, let fall their green 
drapery before the white walls 
of the house. A Kentucky 
coffee tree rears a mass of 
beautiful, soft foliage within 
this court, formed by an angle 
of the buildings, and there are 
two other rare, old specimens 
of the same kind of tree near
