DescriptionSonnenberg Gardens, Canandaigua, New York - 20210820 - 43 - Sonnenberg Mansion as seen from the Italian Garden.jpg
English: A view of Sonnenberg Mansion, as seen from the estate's Italian Garden in August 2021. A sprawling three-story residence built in 1887, the mansion is a particularly exquisite example of the Queen Anne style of architecture in its earliest iteration and with heavy influence from the Richardsonian Romanesque (note the rough-textured stone used on its exterior, rather than the wood-framed structures the style would come to prefer). Particularly notable are the steeply-pitched hipped roof, wide wraparound terrace supported by stylized, octagonal Doric columns, and - of course - the round, finial-topped corner turret adorned with fishscale shingles on the sides and roof. In this house is where the prominent New York banker Frederick Ferris Thompson (1836-1899), and his wife Mary (née Clark; 1835-1923), the daughter of former New York Governor Myron Holley Clark and a noted philanthropist and benefactress in her own right - spent their summers each year until their respective deaths.
