    $25.00

    Frances Benjamin Johnston captured this vintage photograph in Claremont, Surry County, Virginia, showcasing a historic mansion built in 1668. The residence was constructed by Arthur Allen and for many years served as the home of the Allen family. Notably, the mansion is said to be a replica of the royal residence at Claremont, England, which is recognized as the birthplace of Queen Victoria. The property remained within the Allen family until 1882.

    This image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, an initiative aimed at documenting significant architectural sites across the Southern United States. The photograph highlights the architectural features of the mansion, including its distinctive dormers and doorways, which contribute to its historical significance.

    Johnstons work is acknowledged for its detailed representation of Southern architecture, making this image an essential piece for collectors and historians interested in Virginias rich architectural heritage. This photograph dates back to the mid-20th century and is a valuable artifact that connects viewers with the past.
