Tank & Greenhouse, B S Barnes, St Louis, MO, 1893, Original Hand Colored *

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Tank and Greenhouse for B S Barnes, Esq., St Louis, Missouri.   HAND-COLORED.  A Blair Ridington, Architect(s).  From the American Architect & Building News,  October 28, 1893.

This picture is extremely hard to find, as the Architect 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.  It 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.
