Hemingway Home – Literary Legacy in the Heart of Key West
At Tomanek Photography, travel is more than sightseeing—it’s storytelling. The Hemingway Home gallery captures the quiet grandeur and historic charm of one of Key West’s most iconic landmarks. Once the residence of legendary author Ernest Hemingway, this Spanish Colonial estate offers a glimpse into the life and creative spirit of a literary giant.
William B. Tomanek’s documentary-style approach brings out the textures, light, and atmosphere of the home and its lush surroundings. From the vintage interiors to the famous six-toed cats roaming the grounds, each image reflects a moment of stillness, history, and tropical elegance.
