    Historic Dwelling in Aldie, VA - Built 1823 for Monroe

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph by Frances Benjamin Johnston captures a historic dwelling located in Aldie, Loudoun County, Virginia. Built in 1823 under the supervision of Thomas Jefferson and designed by architect James Hoban, this structure has deep historical roots. Notably, it was constructed for President James Monroe, who welcomed prominent figures such as Lafayette as its first guest.

    In 1850, the home transitioned to Colonel Fairfax, marking its significance in Virginias architectural history. The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which aims to document and preserve the regions architectural heritage.

    This photograph serves as a valuable resource for understanding early 19th-century American architecture and the stories of the individuals who shaped it. The detailed representation of this dwelling reflects the craftsmanship and historical context of the time, making it a compelling addition for collectors and history enthusiasts alike.
