    Vintage Gardens at Mount Vernon, Fairfax VA, 20th Century

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph, attributed to Frances Benjamin Johnston, captures a serene scene in Fairfax County, Virginia, near the historic estate of Mount Vernon. The image features beautifully landscaped gardens and lily ponds, reflecting the design principles of the early 20th century. Johnston was known for her work documenting significant architectural and horticultural sites, and this image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South.

    Mount Vernon, the plantation home of George Washington, is a notable landmark in Virginia. The gardens surrounding the estate were meticulously designed to enhance the natural beauty of the area and provide a glimpse into the horticultural practices of the time. The lily ponds serve as a focal point, showcasing the integration of water features in garden design.

    This photograph, created in the mid-20th century, offers a historical perspective on the landscape and architectural heritage of the region. It serves as a valuable record for both enthusiasts of American history and those interested in garden design.
