    Historic Home in Bridgetown, VA - 1655 Architecture

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph, created by Frances Benjamin Johnston, showcases a historic home located in Bridgetown, Northampton County, Virginia. The house, built in 1655 by Arthur Upshur, is notable for being the first frame house in the area with brick ends. It features unique twin entrances and distinct architectural elements such as porches and gables, reflecting the colonial style prevalent during that era.

    The image captures the structure before its restoration, providing a glimpse into the architectural significance of early American homes. The photograph is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which aimed to document the rich architectural heritage of the region. The survey serves as an important resource for understanding historical building styles across the Southern United States.

    Acquired from the Frances Benjamin Johnston estate in 1953, this photograph is a valuable piece of Virginias architectural history and represents the craftsmanship of early American builders.
