    Wakefield Corner, VA: Historic Site of Washingtons Birth

    $25.00

    This vintage photograph captures a significant site in Westmoreland County, Virginia, specifically in the vicinity of Wakefield Corner. The image is associated with the location where George Washington was born, marked by a memorial erected by the Wakefield National Memorial Association. The architectural features presented, including chimneys and dormers, reflect the style of homes in the region during that period.

    The photograph was created by Frances Benjamin Johnston, an influential figure in early 20th-century photography. The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of the Architecture of the South, which documents the architectural heritage of the southern United States. This particular work emphasizes the craftsmanship and brickwork characteristic of the local architecture.

    This piece serves as a historical document, showcasing the architectural lineage of a site that holds considerable importance in American history. It provides valuable insight into the cultural and historical landscape of Virginia during the era of Washington.
