Technically, this outdoor scene sent in by a reader isn’t in South Carolina – but it’s very close and it has particular relevance to people from the Palmetto State, the photographer says. Where is it? What is it? Send your name, hometown and guess to: feedback@statehousereport.com.
Last week’s mystery, “Portrait,” showed a relatively new portrait of a younger Robert Smalls, the Reconstruction congressman from South Carolina known for his Civil War exploits on behalf of the Union. We saw the 2023 painting by artist Jace Yasmeen in the International African American Museum.
Congrats to a few sleuths who correctly identified it: Barry Wingard of Florence; John Hart and Elizabeth Jones, both of Columbia; Pat Keadle of Perry; Willard Strong of Surfside Beach; George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; and Thomas Jacobsen of Sitka, Alaska.
- Send us a mystery picture. 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.
We Can Do Better, South Carolina!
