    $25.00

    This vintage photograph, captured by Frances Benjamin Johnston, is set in Gordonsville, Orange County, Virginia. It showcases the architectural and garden design typical of the region during the early 20th century. Johnston was known for her work with the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which aimed to document the unique structures and landscapes of the American South.

    Gordonsville is notable as the birthplace of Zachary Taylor, the 12th President of the United States, born in 1784. The area is recognized for its historical significance and beautiful estates, which often feature elaborate gardens that reflect the cultural heritage of the region.

    This image contributes to the rich narrative of Virginias architectural history, highlighting the blend of domestic life and natural beauty. It serves as an educational resource for those interested in American history, gardening, and estate architecture. The photograph is part of the collection held by the Library of Congress and was acquired from the Frances Benjamin Johnston estate in 1953.
