EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic home of Jefferson Davis, known as Beauvoir, in Louisiana around 1897. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but it beautifully showcases the architectural grandeur of this significant estate. Beauvoir was originally purchased by planter Samuel Dorsey in 1873 and became the cherished residence of Jefferson Davis from 1877 to 1889. Situated in Biloxi, Mississippi, this area holds a rich history dating back to its settlement by French colonists. The photograph is featured in "A Tour Through the New World America" written by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell and published by C. N. Greig & Co. , London circa 1897. It offers a glimpse into the deep South during the nineteenth century when agriculture thrived and plantations dotted the landscape. In this monochrome image, we see an exterior view of Beauvoir's entrance with shaded steps leading up to its majestic facade. The house stands as a testament to American history and serves as a reminder of Jefferson Davis' connection to the Confederate States of America. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also recognize how it contributes to our understanding of literature, architecture, and historical sites that shape our nation's identity today.
