    Lynchburg Garden Scene, Virginia, Early 20th Century

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph captures a garden scene in Lynchburg, Campbell County, Virginia, reflecting the charm and elegance of early 20th-century landscaping. Taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prominent photographer known for her contributions to the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, this image showcases meticulously arranged flowers that highlight the horticultural practices of the time.

    Lynchburg, a city rich in history and natural beauty, serves as a fitting backdrop for this photograph. The garden depicted is likely associated with Mrs. Allan Johnson, a name linked to the image in Johnstons inventory. The Carnegie Survey aimed to document the architectural heritage and landscapes of the American South, and this photograph is a testament to that mission.

    Acquired from the Frances Benjamin Johnston estate in 1953, this image is part of the Library of Congresss collection, offering a glimpse into the past. It stands as an important piece of American history, celebrating both the artistry of garden design and the cultural landscape of Virginia.
