    George Washingtons Birthplace, Westmoreland VA, 1953

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph captures the site in Westmoreland County, Virginia, near Wakefield Corner, where George Washington was born. The image, part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, documents the natural landscape and features, including trees and driveways that frame the area.

    The photograph was taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, an influential figure in American photography, and is associated with the Wakefield National Memorial Association, which erected a memorial to honor Washingtons birthplace. The historical significance of this location draws interest from those exploring early American history and the legacy of the nations founding figures.

    Acquired from Johnstons estate in 1953, this image serves as an important visual record of a site that holds deep cultural and historical relevance. It is a valuable addition for collectors, historians, and anyone fascinated by the life of George Washington and the rich history of Virginia.
