EDITORS COMMENTS
Hickory Hill," located in Ashland, Virginia, is a historic estate that boasts a rich history dating back to the early 19th century. The house, which is believed to have been built around 1875, is seen in this stunning 1927 photograph taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. The estate was originally part of the larger Shirley Plantation and was later owned by Colonel Henry Taylor Wickham and his wife, Mary (Mrs. William F.) Wickham. The landscape in the photograph showcases the beautiful gardens and evergreen trees that surround the house. The serene scene is reminiscent of the 1920s, a time when the estate was in its prime. The image captures the essence of the American country lifestyle during this era, with a lone figure in the foreground adding a sense of scale and context to the scene. The house, with its grand columns and intricate details, stands proudly against the backdrop of the lush greenery. The lantern slide, hand-colored between 1920 and 1930, showcases the vibrant colors and textures of the estate, transporting us back in time. The estate's history is further enhanced by its location in Hanover County, Virginia, in the United States, and its connection to the Congressional Library and the Library of Congress. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and heritage of "Hickory Hill" and serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that continue to shape American culture. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, inviting us to appreciate the natural beauty and history of this remarkable estate.
