Lauderdale Building, Butler Duncan, Providence, RI, 1894, Original Hand Colored *

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Lauderdale Building for the Butler Duncan Land Company, Providence, Rhode Island.  HAND-COLORED.   Stone, Carpenter & Willson, Architect(s).  From the American Architect and Building News, June 30 1894.

 

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 approximately 12 by 16 inches and has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 16 by 20 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.
