About the Item
Here we have Charming Historical Southern painting “the chimneys plantation, in Cumberland Island off Georgia. Painting is by Martin B Leisser, (1846-1940) and dated 1907.
Depictd Chimneys in a beautiful impressionist landscape, with a path. Done by an American painter who is from Both Georgia and Pennsylvania
The Stafford plantation was built in the early 19th C by Robert Stafford who unfortunately had many slaves working on the property. The remnants of the chimney in present painting are part of the original homes the slaves lived on. Which makes
this artwork a historical painting. In 1877 when Stafford passed away, the property (+5,000 acres) was sold to the Carnegie Family.
All that remains of Stafford's house is a ruin known as "the Chimneys," a series of 24 hearth-and-chimney structures representing Stafford's slaves' housing, about one kilometer east of the main house.
Currently today the property is privately held under a life estate by a Carnegie descendant.
