    Description

    A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Southern Home for Destitute Children, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
    HAND-COLORED
    James H Windrem
    , Architect(s).  From the American Architect and Building News, January 16, 1892.
    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.
