    Description

    A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Competitive Design for the Monument to General Grant, Washington DC.
    HAND COLORED
    John Ord
    , Architect(s).  From the American Architect & Building News
    ,  October 18, 1890.
    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 16 inches.  It has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 16 by 20 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.
