Davis House, Salisbury NC, Historic Photo 1803-1952
Beautifully designed. Printed on archival paper for modern walls.
Frances Benjamin Johnston captured this historic image of the Davis House in Salisbury, North Carolina, a significant structure dating back to 1803. Originally a residence for the Davis family, the building later served as the Davis & Wiley Bank, highlighting its importance in the local community. The architectural details, such as the prominent doors and sidelights, reflect the craftsmanship of the early 19th century.
The Davis House stands as a testament to the architectural heritage of Rowan County, showcasing elements that are characteristic of the period. This photograph is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which aimed to document the rich architectural landscape of the region. The image was published in Thomas Tileston Watermans The Early Architecture of North Carolina in 1941, further emphasizing its historical significance.
This image, taken between 1864 and 1952, provides a glimpse into the past and the evolution of Salisburys architectural identity.
