American Chestnut Camera, 2022
Inspired by American Chestnut scraps found in the eaves of my 1790's home, I modeled this on my all-time favorite field camera, the Scoville 14x17" Reversible Back Acme View Box. I made the ground glass out of hand-floated glass from the 1800's and all of the hardware is hand wrought iron salvaged from our property. This camera is now part of my personal collection.
