Rough Point Mansion from a bridge of Cliff Walk trail, after snowfall. Newport, Rhode Island
Album 435: Newport RI in snow - Cape Cod, January 29 - February 5, 2005
The image features the historic and majestic Rough Point Mansion situated at 650 Bellevue Avenue, on Newport's famous Cliff Walk. The mansion was built by John Nicholas Brown II as his family's summer home.
It is a striking red sandstone building with steeply pitched roofs, multiple chimneys, and tall windows featuring dark red shutters. A prominent arched window dominates the front facade of the building, with other windows arranged in pairs above it.
The surrounding landscape is covered in snow, accentuating the mansion's grandeur. The Cliff Walk bridge from which this photograph was taken provides an elevated vantage point, allowing for a unique perspective on the property and its surroundings.
The clear blue sky adds to the overall aesthetic of the image, with snow-covered rocks leading up towards the mansion. This photograph captures the essence of one of Newport's most celebrated estates during the winter season.
Rough Point Mansion is currently owned by The National Trust for Historic Preservation, after being acquired from Doris Duke, who lived there until her death in 1993. – AI vision
