1842 Building in Selma, Alabama: Historic Architecture Photo
Beautifully designed. Printed on archival paper for modern walls.
This vintage photograph features a significant building located in Selma, Alabama, within Dallas County. Constructed in 1842, the two-story masonry structure showcases round stone columns across its façade and fine ironwork on the second-story balcony. This architectural style reflects the craftsmanship and design sensibilities of its time.
The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which aimed to document the diverse architectural heritage of the region. The survey is housed at the Library of Congress, and this particular photograph was acquired from the estate of Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prominent photographer known for her documentation of American architecture and culture.
This historical image not only captures the architectural details of a bygone era but also represents the cultural landscape of Selma in the 19th century. It serves as a valuable resource for those interested in the history and development of Southern architecture.
