Description

"During the nineteenth century, Americans celebrated their towns and cities through lithographic landscapes. In Maine, these prints were the work of such leading artists as Fitz Henry Lane and talented, lesser known local artists, such as Cyrus William King. Bringing many of these remarkable works together for the first time, this exhibition commemorates the bicentennial of Maine statehood and Bowdoin College's 225th anniversary. It also provides an opportunity to explore Maine's antebellum art and architecture and the role that lithography played in promoting the state and its early artistic and economic aspirations"--|cProvided by publisher.
