1810 Historic Building in Winston-Salem, NC - Vintage Photo
Beautifully designed. Printed on archival paper for modern walls.
This vintage photograph by Frances Benjamin Johnston captures a significant building in Winston-Salem, Forsyth County, North Carolina.

The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which aimed to document the architectural heritage of the region.
The photograph showcases intricate brickwork and notable doorways, reflecting the craftsmanship of the period. Johnstons work is essential for understanding the architectural history of the South, and this particular image is referenced in Thomas Tileston Waterman’s 1941 publication, The Early Architecture of North Carolina.
