EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and historical significance of Williamsburg, Virginia during the 18th century. Taken in 1943 by Howard Hollem, it showcases the reconstructed and restored capitol building of the Virginia colony. Thanks to the efforts of John D. Rockefeller Jr. in the 1930s, this iconic structure was brought back to its original state. The capitol, originally erected between 1701-5, served as a meeting place for both the Virginia General Assembly and General Court. In this image, we see it proudly flying an old type of British flag with permission from England and the United States. Hollem's photograph beautifully portrays not only a physical representation of colonial America but also symbolizes resilience and heritage amidst turbulent times. The backdrop of World War II adds another layer to its historical context. Intriguingly composed with a clock tower standing tall in one corner, this image evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone yet still preserved through restoration efforts like those led by Rockefeller. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded that history is not just confined within books; it lives on through tangible structures that stand as testaments to our past. This photograph invites us to explore our roots and appreciate how far we have come while honoring those who came before us.
