    This vintage photograph features a serene garden scene in Richmond, Virginia, specifically in Henrico County. Captured by Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prominent photographer known for her work documenting Southern architecture and landscapes, the image showcases intricate arbors amidst lush greenery. The date of this photograph remains unspecified, but it is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which aimed to document the architectural heritage of the region.

    Johnstons work often highlighted the elegance of garden designs and the interplay between architecture and nature. This particular image reflects the meticulous care and artistic vision that went into creating these outdoor spaces, which were popular in the early 20th century. The gardens not only served aesthetic purposes but also provided a retreat for residents looking to connect with nature.

    The photograph is housed in the Library of Congress, where it contributes to the rich historical narrative of Virginias architectural and cultural landscape. This image serves as a valuable resource for those interested in American history, garden design, and the evolution of Southern aesthetics.
