    1794 Architecture in King William County, VA: Historic Site

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph captures a significant architectural site in King William County, Virginia, near Sweet Hall. The structure, built in 1794 by James Ruffin, features distinctive gambrel roofs and prominent chimneys, showcasing the design aesthetics of that era. The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which documents historical buildings across the region.

    Notably, the site includes ruins of an even older house, with brick dating back to the 1600s, highlighting the layered history of this location. The photograph serves as a visual record of the architectural evolution in Virginia, reflecting both the craftsmanship and materials used throughout the centuries.

    Acquired from the Frances Benjamin Johnston estate in 1953, this image is an important contribution to the understanding of American architectural history. It exemplifies the enduring legacy of early American homes and provides insight into the cultural heritage of the region.
