Documenting two Georgian houses in Annapolis

Article Abstract:

The historic Hammond-Harwood House-Museum and the Upton Scott House are two of Annapolis, MD's fine examples of Georgian architecture. The former is a five-part structure designed in 1773 for lawyer Mathias Hammond, while the latter was built in the early 1760s for the governor's personal physician.

Wreath and holiday decorations from various historic houses in the United States are shown. Almost all use locally available greenery differing only in accents. Artistic fruit, vegetable and leaf arrangements plus Victorian toys give delightful touches to these homes.
