    Frances Benjamin Johnston captured this vintage photograph during a commission from Mrs. Devore to document the restoration of her estate near Fredericksburg, Virginia. The image, part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, showcases the architectural details and gardens of the historic Chatham estate, located in Stafford County.

    Johnstons work reflects her commitment to preserving Southern architectural heritage. The Carnegie Survey aimed to record and promote awareness of significant structures throughout the region. This photograph contributes to a greater understanding of the estates historical significance, shedding light on the design and landscape typical of the era.

    Acquired from the Frances Benjamin Johnston estate in 1953, this image is an important artifact for historians and enthusiasts of American architecture and landscape design. It serves as a valuable resource for those interested in the cultural history of Virginia and the evolution of its estates.
