Item Details
Description
Baltimore Town in 1752. after John Moale (ca. 1731-1798). Engraving. Baltimore: A. Hoen & Co., c. 1875. 9 1/4 x 19 inches sheet. The primary source for Baltimore in 1752 and other similar versions of the scene was a watercolor painted by John Moale Jr. Moale’s sketch was a primitive rendering that depicted only the existing structures set upon a bare landscape with the suggestion of the river depicted horizontally in the foreground. It bears very little resemblance to the subsequent views that credit Moale for providing the inspiration. In the considerably romanticized printed versions, the designer has attempted to convey a sense of imposed order to the environment.
