Quitman County Courthouse (Marks, Mississippi)

This impressive Classical Revival courthouse was built in 1910, and it is strikingly similar to the Crittenden County Courthouse at Marion, Arkansas. I suspect that it was designed by the firm of Chamberlin and Company, which designed courthouses all over the southeast including a few in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Mississippi, Florida, Arkansas, and Tennessee.

I found the message over the entrance to be interesting; Chamberlin seemed to like little additions like this.

Title: "Cotton Plantation"
Artist: Eve Kottgen
Year: 1942
It is an oil on canvas that was originally located in the old 1940 Batesville post office located downtown. Today it is hidden away in the back of the current post office. I was not allowed to go back there to take this photograph, so the post master here was kind enough to take this photograph for me.
