| Description | This unsigned photograph, taken by Doris Ulmann in 1933 or 1934, shows a corner in Olive Dame Campbell's bedroom at the John C. Campbell Folk School. Campbell resided in the Farm House, the only pre-existing structure on the school's property. A woven coverlet covers the bed and a second one is folded at the foot. A sedge broom stands in the corner of the hearth with an iron shovel. On the mantle piece are a carved bowl, a carved horse, a carved mule, and a barely visible iron candlestick holder. The wall hanging at the foot of the bed has a mountain scene woven into it. The photograph's verso reads "Mrs. Campbell's home, Brasstown, N.C.". |
