Church of the Ascension, New Public Hall, Sunday School, Greenpoint, NY, 1885

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Church of the Ascension, New Public Hall and Sunday School, Greenpoint, New York.  HAND-COLORED.  Robert W. Gibson, Architect(s). From the American Architect and Building News, April 11, 1885.

This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures 7 by 5 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 11 by 9 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with light browning along the edges and some light crinkling.
