A sculpture of a woman holding flowers, “Camille” by sculptor Jo Hess, stands in front of azaleas at the Bragg-Mitchell Mansion, March 21, 2021, in Mobile, Alabama. The 1855 Greek Revival antebellum mansion was built for Judge John Bragg and is one of the most photographed tourist attractions in the city. It is now used as a house museum and a popular wedding venue. The property is known for its prolific live oak trees and beautiful azaleas. According to local legend, all the oak trees on the property were cut during the Civil War to provide an open space for Confederate soldiers to shell approaching Union troops. The 14-room house includes seven bedrooms and 15-foot ceilings. (Photo by Carmen K. Sisson/Cloudybright)
