English Cottage Style Home – Georgia Greeting Card

Description

English Cottage Style Home – 5×7 Georgia Greeting Card by Mark Tisdale.

The subject of this Georgia greeting card is a classic English cottage style home in Montezuma, my home town. The design of the house on this card is classic Americana. There was a period around the beginning of the 20th century when English Vernacular Revival architecture was quite popular. And people still seek old homes and build new homes in this style today. There’s simply something appealing and homey about it that makes for classic art as well. There’s definitely a storybook quality to these old homes.

This old house was built in 1907. This historic English cottage style home has the distinction of having been designed by Georgia’s first registered female architect, Leila Ross Wilburn.
