Bird'S-Eye View, 1878
Bring a little Marlborough home.
Slate Desk Plaque · 11 × 7 inches
A book, a pen and a page of work are ready on the desk, with the small plaque set nearby where there is time to notice its picture. Marlborough's bird's-eye view gathers streets and buildings into one picture, giving you more than one small town detail to return to.
The Marlborough bird's-eye lithograph carries the year 1878 on the sheet itself. Its elevated, illustrated view gathers streets and buildings into one composition. This artwork interprets that published town panorama, retaining its identity as an imagined viewpoint used to present the community as a whole.
The panorama presents Marlborough as a whole community. It can sit among a few favorite books, giving the shelf a particular local subject as well as something to read.
