Monticello, Charlottesville Virginia. c1780

May, 1989

The nagging problem is, that one has to assume that everything that has appeared in these six photos, was built by slave labor.

Most likely they did use slave labor. Makes one happy they abolished slavery and I'm glad I'm born in the present.
This photo is very painterly and emotional.

Is this mud brick?

No, the picture is fuzzy, those are large blocks of stone.

They would have been heavy to lift, then.

Love the colours and texture, it is a little of putting knowing that these were built by slave labour, though.
