One view from the formal garden
One of the fifty rooms in the mansion
Conservatory
Visiting his mansion and walking in his garden, George Eastman left legacy that endures to this day. According to the one publication, more than a hundred thousand visitors come to this National Historic Landmark each year. George Eastman, universally recognized as the father of popular photography, he founded the Eastman Kodak company. After the morning's round table, I decided take a tour of the home's garden. Taking a tour of the garden, I slipped away to have a few quiet moments in the garden. Interesting facts I discovered, how his philanthropy established or supported many educational intuitions. Impressed with Booker T. Washington book "
Up From Slavery, Mr. Eastman gave a generous donation to the
Tuskegee Institute.
