The Elms

The Elms is a large mansion (sometimes facetiously called a "summer cottage") located at 367 Bellevue Avenue, Newport, Rhode Island, completed in 1901. The architect Horace Trumbauer (1868–1938) designed it for the coal baron Edward Julius Berwind (1848–1936), taking inspiration from the 18th century Château d'Asnières in Asnières-sur-Seine, France. C. H. Miller and E. W. Bowditch, working closely with Trumbauer, designed the gardens and landscape. The Preservation Society of Newport County purchased The Elms in 1962, and opened the house to the public. The Elms was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1996.

This portrait of Mrs Harry Lehr, a Gilded Age American aristocrat, hangs in the entrance hall of The Elms. Mrs Lehr's first husband revealed on her wedding night that he was only interested in her for her money and theirs was to be a marriage in name only. Perhaps life wasn't all smooth sailing for the Newport elite after all. Ballroom. The Elms 35
