Star City is the seat of Lincoln County, in southeastern Arkansas, and this photograph shows its county courthouse as a standalone subject rather than as part of a street scene. The caption card carries no date, so the exact year the picture was taken is unknown. It belongs to a group of Arkansas courthouse views held by the Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division, a body of work that documents the county seats across the state. Courthouses like this one were the civic center of their counties, housing records, courtrooms, and county offices, which makes such images useful for studying local architecture and town life.
