    Foster Family Home, Pamunkey, Virginia, 1680 Photo

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph captures the historic home of the Foster family, located in Pamunkey, New Kent County, Virginia. Built around 1680, this structure features distinct brickwork and spacious porches, characteristic of early American colonial architecture. The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which documents significant historical buildings in the region.

    The Foster house serves as a testament to the craftsmanship and design of its era, reflecting the lifestyle and values of its inhabitants. As one of the surviving examples from the late 17th century, it offers insight into the architectural trends that shaped Virginia during this period.

    This photograph is credited to Frances Benjamin Johnston, an important figure in early American photography. The image is housed in the Library of Congress, providing an invaluable resource for historians and architecture enthusiasts alike. The preservation of such images helps to maintain the connection to our cultural heritage and architectural history.
