MYSTERY PHOTO: Painting of South Carolina scene

A reader sent in this image of a painting by his father of a South Carolina scene you may recognize.  (We’ve altered it a little to remove the name on a sign and the painter’s name.) Where is it and what is it?  Send your guess about the location of this photo to feedback@statehousereport.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.

Our previous Mystery Photo

Our Oct. 4 mystery, “Interesting pattern, tough mystery,” shows the “acoustically near perfect” ceiling of Francis Marion University’s performing arts center in downtown Florence.  Thanks to reader Bud Ferillo for sharing the photo.  

And kudos to those who identified it, including George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; Will Bradley of Las Vegas, Nevada; Barry Wingard and Jacie Godfrey, both of Florence; David Taylor of Darlington; and Frank Bouknight of Summerville.

Graf provided, as often is the case, some more context: “According to theatrecc.com, Francis Marion University, in partnership with the city of Florence, constructed a new center to house its performing and fine arts programs. Designed to accommodate a range of performance types, the 850-seat mainstage employs a custom acoustic shell which rolls in on a gantry from rear stage storage – converting the theatre into a concert hall in a matter of minutes. An academic wing offers rehearsal and performance spaces, recording and sound reinforcement facilities, faculty offices, and a music technology lab.”

  • Send us a mystery:  If you have a photo that you believe will stump readers, send it along (but make sure to tell us what it is because it may stump us too!)  Send to: feedback@statehousereport.com and mark it as a photo submission.  Thanks.
