Charleston SC Home of Governor Maybank, 20th Century
This vintage photograph captures the residence of Burnet Rhett Maybank, a notable figure who later became the Governor of South Carolina. Taken in Charleston, South Carolina, the image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which documents the architectural heritage of the region. The photograph showcases the intricate ironwork and distinctive windows characteristic of Charlestons historic homes.
Frances Benjamin Johnston, the photographer, was known for her contributions to documenting American architecture. This photo is a testament to her skill in capturing the essence of early 20th-century Southern architecture. The residence reflects the rich history of Charleston, a city known for its well-preserved antebellum structures and vibrant cultural heritage.
Acquired from the Frances Benjamin Johnston estate in 1953, this image is preserved within the Library of Congresss Prints and Photographs Division. It serves as a valuable educational resource for those interested in the architectural history of Charleston and the broader narrative of the American South.
