    $25.00

    This vintage photograph captures a historical wooden building located in Dinwiddie County, Virginia, near Petersburg. Constructed around 1730, the structure was built by Captain Howell Briggs, a notable figure in the region. His son, Gray Briggs, was born in this house and later served as a member of the House of Burgesses from 1752 to 1758, highlighting the buildings significance in early Virginia governance.

    The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, a comprehensive documentation of Southern architecture conducted in the early 20th century. This survey aimed to preserve and promote the understanding of the architectural heritage of the region. The photograph itself is attributed to Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prominent photographer known for her work in documenting historic buildings and landscapes.

    This historical image not only showcases the architectural style of the period but also serves as a visual record of Virginias rich cultural heritage. It is an excellent addition for those interested in American history and architecture.
