Several buildings are depicted, with numerous people strolling about. Surrounded by vignette decoration and scenes, including the arrival of the Puritans and the visit of an Indian chief. A paddle boat is at the top. A scarce and lovely view, very much in the style of Bartlett. In near fine clean condition. Beautifully hand colored. Sheet measures 10 3/4 " W x 7 " H, image measures 9 " W x 6 1/4 " H. Very nice view relating to this college and uncommon so attractively hand colored.
