Power Station, Metropolitan Railroad, Paris, France, 1904, Original Hand Colored -

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Electric Power Station, Metropolitan Railroad, Paris, France.  HAND-COLORED.   P Friese, Architect(s).  From the American Architect and Building News, May 28, 1904.

 

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