The collection of my grandfather’s photographs that I’ve had the chance to replicate continues this week with a shot of Stanton Hall in Natchez, Mississippi.
I’ve been fascinated by viewing the United States through his eyes from photos taken decades ago and now have enjoyed the journey of finding the same locations to see for myself. I hope you come back and check out the progression of the Vintage America project every Friday!
Stanton Hall | September 1974
Excerpt from my grandmother’s travel journal on September 27th, 1974: “We treated ourselves only to the inside of Stanton Hall — magnificent, ornate mansion under oaks and magnolias. Very much silver around, marble, and wood-cut mantles and doors, silver Sheffield hinges that after 150 years still support the tremendous mahogany doors, furniture, carpets, mirrors from France and Italy — splendors of a plantation fortune.”
