EDITORS COMMENTS
Magnolia Plantation, located at 3550 Ashley River Road in Charleston, South Carolina, is a historic site steeped in history and natural beauty. Established in 1679 by Thomas Drayton, the plantation was originally known as "Magnolia-on-the-Ashley." The gardens, a stunning display of nature's splendor, have been a source of inspiration for over three centuries. In this photograph taken in 1928 by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, the Magnolia Plantation house, which was moved from Somerville, South Carolina, after the Civil War, is bathed in the soft light of the 20th century. The house, adorned with intricate details, stands proudly amidst the lush greenery and vibrant flowers, including the iconic Spanish moss-draped trees. The landscape in this hand-colored lantern slide image showcases the timeless allure of the South, with its moss-covered trees, Tillandsia usneoides (Spanish moss), and various flowering plants. The gardens, a testament to the region's rich heritage, have been meticulously preserved and are now a National Register of Historic Places site and a popular tourist attraction. Founded over three centuries ago, Magnolia Plantation continues to captivate visitors with its historic significance, beautiful gardens, and the natural beauty of the Lowcountry landscape. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston in the 1920s, offers a glimpse into the past and the enduring charm of this iconic Southern plantation.
