Description

Photograph of Chambers County Courthouse in Anahuac, TX. A paved road runs across the foreground of the photo, parallel to the green lawn the courthouse sits on as it faces towards the right side of the image. A sidewalk sits parallel to the road at the lawn's edge, with a walkway breaking off to lead up to the front entrance of the courthouse. A person dressed in a bright, light orange dress walks along the path towards the stairs leading up to the courthouse's front doors. Foliage from an off-camera tree appears at the left edge of the photo in the foreground while another tree grows to the left of the courthouse's stairs. The courthouse building is rectangular in shape and is made of large white bricks, with the section the stairs connect to offset inwards compared to the rest of the building. The courthouse has three rows of tall windows set into white frames across its width. In the center offset section of the building, above the top row of windows, is "A.D. Chambers County 1936" carved into the stone bricks. A small rectangular building sits on top of the courthouse's flat roof, its own roof similarly flat, with multiple tall, thin metal structures rising behind it from the courthouse's roof.
