    Shirley, VA 1650: Historic Architecture Photograph

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph captures a significant architectural piece in Shirley, Charles City County, Virginia, dating back to around 1650. The property, originally granted to Colonel Edward Hill in 1660, has a rich history intertwined with notable figures, including the Carter family, who inherited it through marriage in 1723.

    The image showcases exquisite details of the interior, emphasizing decorative arts, fireplaces, and doorways that reflect the craftsmanship of the era. The photograph is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which documents the historical architecture of the region.

    Taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prominent photographer known for her work in documenting American architecture, this image serves as a valuable record of Virginias historical heritage. It is an essential piece for collectors and historians interested in the architectural evolution of the South.
