EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1933 and 1940 by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, captures the elegant and timeless beauty of Wales House located in the Petersburg vicinity of Dinwiddie County, Virginia, United States. The image is part of the Carnegie Survey of Architecture in the South, a significant documentation of Southern architecture during the 1930s. The Palladian-style house, with its symmetrical facade and grand chimneys, stands proudly amidst the rolling hills and lush greenery of the countryside. The large porch, adorned with intricate wooden details, invites one to imagine the quiet serenity of country living. The chimneys, a distinctive feature of the house, add a sense of warmth and charm, while the bare trees in the background hint at the changing of the seasons. Johnston's photograph is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of the United States and the enduring allure of historic homes. The image has been preserved in the Library of Congress, a fitting tribute to the importance of documenting and preserving the country's architectural history. The Wales House, with its classic design and picturesque setting, remains a beloved symbol of the American South and a reminder of the beauty and history that can be found in the most unexpected places.
