    Historic Estate in Surry, VA - 1730 Architecture

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, showcases a historic estate located in Surry, Virginia, specifically in Prince George County. The building dates back to approximately 1730 and was constructed by Nathaniel Harrison II. For nearly two centuries, it served as the residence of the Harrison family. The central block of the estate, which connects two older wings, is believed to have been designed by Thomas Jefferson in 1789, shortly after his return from France.

    Johnstons work is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, highlighting significant architectural contributions in the region. This image reflects the grandeur of early American estate architecture, featuring beautifully landscaped gardens that complement the historic structure.

    The photograph is a valuable educational resource for those interested in Virginias architectural history and the legacy of prominent families in the area. It is an excellent addition for collectors and historians alike, providing insight into the past while preserving the artistry of its time.
