House Tour: Greek Revival Antebellum Mansion - Magnolia Hall

Designed by Massachusetts architect and engineer J. Edwards Smith as the family home of Natchez native and cotton magnate Thomas Henderson, Magnolia Hall is an imposing Greek Revival structure with an opulent Ionic portico and interior Italianate embellishments in vogue “up East” at the time, most notably its marble mantels and floral designs of the center-hallway cornices and parlors’ ceiling medallions with their magnolia flourishes that influenced the...

Iconic Home Design | Greek Revival
The last phase of Neoclassical architecture brought us Greek Revival in the late 18th century, but didn’t become popular until the 19th century when Greek furniture and interior design hit its peak popularity. This style started in Northern Europe and the United States during that time.
Homes with a Greek Revival style of architecture are easy to spot with their often painted white resemblance to marble. Other ways to spot a Greek Revival style home are:
Low pitched roofs
Gables with pediments
Tall, double hung windows
Simple moldings
And pilasters
Greek Revival is the perfect style of home for those looking for a bold, historic look.

Architect Jacques Levet presents an introductory course on the Greek Revival, an American design phenomenon that originated in the 19th-century and continues to influence our buildings today.
This course is presented by the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art, a national nonprofit promoting the practice, understanding, and appreciation of classical design. To watch more online classes like this one, or to become a member and support our educational mission, visit https://www.classicist.org/ .
About the Course:
In the 19th century, Grecian architecture was utilized to help develop what is often referred to as the country’s first national architecture. It led an aesthetic movement that crossed social boundaries and affected urban and rural landscapes of areas as different as Baltimore, Maryland and New Orleans, Louisiana. This course will examine the development of this Greek Revival movement in the United States by investigating its origins, discussing how this architectural language became prevalent in our country, and demonstrating through a Louisiana case study how it affected the architectural development of existing building traditions. It will additionally focus on a series of particular elements of interest to designers and builders and discuss references available for use and study. By examining the use of Grecian precedent as a source for modern design in the 19th century, the course will demonstrate how the Greek Revival language can continue to inspire design solutions today.
Learning Objectives
1. Understand the basics of the development of the Grecian movement in the United States
2. Become familiar with the various modes of transmission that allowed the Grecian movement to become prevalent across the country
3. Understand how precedent was utilized to adapt the language to existing traditions
4. Understand how the Grecian movement is an example of utilizing historic precedent towards new forms and building types
5. Identify various elements that can be utilized and adapted in modern designs
6. Be familiar with historical and modern resources to utilize as design references and further research

About the Instructor:
Jacques Levet, Jr., born and raised in Southeast Louisiana, began his professional education by studying biomedical engineering and medicine. During his medical training, he became involved in the preservation community of New Orleans and founded a youth-oriented organization, Louisiana Home, aimed at safeguarding the state’s cultural heritage. After two years of medical school and becoming increasingly more passionate about architecture, Jacques decided to change his career path and pursued a masters degree in Classical Architecture at Notre Dame.
While at Notre Dame, Jacques received the Acanthus Award for Classical and Vernacular design and a Travel Fellowship to study American Greek Revival architecture, traveling over 6000 miles around the country to study over 100 different sites. In 2016, Jacques was awarded the J. Neel Reid Prize by the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation, a travel fellowship that allowed him to examine Thomas Jefferson’s time in Paris and how Jefferson’s application of the ideas he saw in France advanced the built environment in America. In 2018, he received a Shutze Award for his design for a Center of Architecture in New Orleans as well as the Suzanne Kasler Paris Drawing Tour Scholarship. He currently works for D. Stanley Dixon Architect.

A significant grande dame of the area’s historic mansions, regal Magnolia Hall, circa 1858, sits atop a slight plateau at the northeast corner of Pearl and Washington Streets in uptown Natchez, Mississippi. Designed by Massachusetts architect and engineer J. Edwards Smith as the family home of Natchez native and cotton magnate Thomas Henderson, Magnolia Hall is an imposing Greek Revival structure with an opulent Ionic portico and interior Italianate embellishments in vogue “up East” at the time, most notably its marble mantels and floral designs of the center-hallway cornices and parlors’ ceiling medallions with their magnolia flourishes that influenced the mansion’s later name. Equally intriguing is Magnolia Hall’s brownstone exterior—walls of brick, stuccoed and then painted and scored the academically researched, original lush chocolate, replicating the modern mansions of the affluent and refined families (“Brownstoners”) of New York City and other notable up-east cities of the time. Interestingly, mid-nineteenth-century Natchez boasted over a hundred brownstone structures; Magnolia Hall is one of only two remaining and the only one restored.
In 2016, when the members of The Natchez Garden Club and its endorsed non-profit Preservation Society of Ellicott’s Hill began the vast exterior renovation of Magnolia Hall, they received from the Mississippi Department of Archives and History a substantial grant. Among its directives, this grant required that the facade, both its walls and majestic columns, must be returned to its historically accurate color—a well-kept secret that lay beneath over a century and a half of paint and patchwork. The resulting bold and innovative restoration has warranted praise for its historic accuracy in scraping away the layers of inauthentic color and inauthentic southern lore and replacing it with the genuine grandeur of its origin and honest reflection of its era. This historic home is open for tours daily.
