View of Boston, July 4th 1870
Bring a little Boston home.
Metal Art Sign · 7 × 5 inches
A small wall view can catch your eye between coming home and setting down your keys. The published Boston view labeled July 4th 1870 puts waterfront and harbor prominently within the city picture, with shore and water considered together.
The source is a published 1870 F. Fuchs / John Weik view, labeled July 4th 1870, with waterfront and harbor prominent. The view preserves a particular relationship between Boston Harbor and its shore. Water, buildings and routes form a record of local maritime life at the time of the source.
The city view connects Boston's streets and buildings with its harbor frontage, preserving the waterfront as part of a published presentation of the whole city. Give the sign a place indoors where you can notice its picture during the day.
