VIRGINIA: TOLL GATE, c1890. A glimpse into the past as we travel back to late 19th century Virginia, where a turnpike toll gate stands proudly on a dirt road. This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston around 1890, transports us to a time when horse-drawn carriages and wagons were the primary means of transportation. The image captures the essence of rural life in the American South during this era. The toll gate serves as a reminder of the importance placed on maintaining roads and infrastructure even in those times. Positioned under the shade of a towering tree, it provides respite for weary travelers passing through. Frances Benjamin Johnston's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of this historic scene - from the weathered wood and rustic architecture of the toll gate itself to the surrounding landscape that stretches into the distance. As we gaze upon this snapshot from turn-of-the-century Virginia, we are transported back in time; imagining ourselves traversing these dusty roads amidst an era marked by simplicity and charm. It is photographs like these that allow us to connect with our history and gain insight into how far we have come.
