Welcome to the Richmond In Sight store.
As we work our way through the images in Harry's collection and learn about the people and places in his photographs, we find unexpected connections between photographs and stories too good to leave alone. As a result, Kitty's second book, "On The West Clay Line" combines oral histories and incredible photographs which help bring Jackson Ward, Carver and Newtowne of the early 1900s back to life. We also selected our first set of photographs to be made into notecards so you can share Harry's images when you write to family and friends.

Up & Down Church Hill
$
17.95
Images by Harry Stilson & oral histories from Church Hill, Shockoe, & Fulton bring the history of Richmond, Virginia between 1920 and 1950 alive - once again.
"Up & Down Church Hill" is a portal into Richmond's past. Kitty Snow has created a time machine, powered by Harry Stilson's photographs and records, to transport the reader into a bygone age at risk of forever fading into the shadows of yesteryear. The result is nostalgic and transcendant." - Ray Daudani

"The voices you will hear are your neighbors: The man who coaches your children, the woman who underwrites your mortgage. They run our restaurants, teach our students, and paint our walls. They're the children and grandchildren of the people in Harry Stilson's photographs and these are their stories."
