    1730 Colonial Architecture in Charles City, Virginia

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph by Frances Benjamin Johnston, taken in Charles City County, Virginia, showcases a significant architectural structure from the early 18th century. Built around 1730 by William Byrd II, the building reflects the colonial style prevalent during that era. The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, a comprehensive documentation of southern architecture, which emphasizes the historical importance of such dwellings.

    Richard Crane, a notable local figure, is associated with this property, adding a personal narrative to the architectural heritage of the region. The photograph captures the wings of the structure, illustrating the design and craftsmanship that characterized the homes of prominent families in Virginia during the colonial period.

    Acquired from the estate of Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1953, this image serves as an important record of early American architecture. It is held in the Prints and Photographs Division of the Library of Congress, connecting viewers to the rich history of Charles City and its architectural legacy.
