    Adobe House in Fork Union, VA, Early 20th Century

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph features a small adobe house located in Fork Union, Virginia, within Fluvanna County. Documented by Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prominent photographer known for her work on American architecture, this image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which aimed to capture the architectural diversity of the region.

    Adobe houses are rare in Virginia, making this image particularly significant. The structure exemplifies the unique building techniques and materials that reflect the local heritage. This photograph serves as an important historical record of architectural styles in the area during the early 20th century.

    The image was acquired from the Frances Benjamin Johnston estate in 1953 and is preserved in the Prints and Photographs Division of the Library of Congress. It contributes to the broader understanding of American vernacular architecture and the cultural landscape of Virginias past.
