EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'The Old Kitchen Fireplace, Mt. Vernon, Va. between 1900 and 1915,' is a stunning piece of American history captured by the skilled lens of William H. Jackson. The image transports us back in time to the early 20th century, specifically to the historic estate of Mount Vernon in Fairfax County, Virginia. Mount Vernon, the iconic mansion and plantation home of General George Washington, is a National Historic Landmark and a cherished symbol of American history. In this photograph, we are given a glimpse into the interior of one of the estate's buildings, specifically the old kitchen. The room is dominated by a grand, brick fireplace, its Palladian-inspired design a testament to the architectural influence of the time. The floor, worn and weathered, speaks to the passage of time and the countless meals that have been prepared here. The photograph was taken using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, a technique popular during the early 1900s. The image is a poignant reminder of the rich history and heritage that can be found in the buildings and sites that have stood the test of time. This photograph, a part of the Edwin H. Husher Collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to any collection of historic American images.
