ASHLAND (BELLE HELENE)
PLANTATION
Near Darrow Louisiana
Ashland, erected in 1841, is another mon-
ument to its designer, the senior Gallier, greatest
builder of Louisiana classic architecture. The
completely square columns are nearly 4 feet
around and 30 feet high. In spite of the severity of
line the surface, coloring and perfect proportions
give this building its great softness and charm.
