This collection brings together reproductions of paintings devoted to Boston. The harbor and its ships, Beacon Hill, Boston Common, Park Street, East Boston and several cultural institutions form a visual portrait of the city. The works combine urban scenes, maritime landscapes, historical memory and preparatory studies for monumental decorations.
Boston Harbor and the Maritime Tradition
The harbor is one of the selection’s recurring themes. Active on Atlantic trade routes from the colonial period onward, it is represented through panoramic views, departing ships, wharves and changing light. Boston Harbor with the City in the Distance, by Fitz Henry Lanecreates a landscape in which the city and maritime activity share the same horizon.
Sunset over Boston Harborfavours a quieter light, while Boston Harbor, by Robert Salmonoffers a comparison with another way of arranging sailing ships, water and architecture. For a cohesive wall display, these maritime views can be brought together by palette, orientation or type of vessel.
Maurice Prendergast: Rain, Snow and Urban Life
Maurice Prendergast’s scenes show Boston in varied conditions and rhythms. Boston Sunsetis complemented by Rainy Day in Bostonand Snowy Day in Boston. Together, they create a series on the city’s light, weather and movement.
Parks and transport complete this group. Franklin Park, Bostonshifts the focus towards a place for strolling, while Docks in East Bostonand the ferry views connect urban activity with the waterfront.
Boston Common, Park Street and Beacon Hill
Preserved as public space since 1634, Boston Common holds an enduring place in the history and image of the city. Park Street in Boston Common, by Arthur Clifton Goodwincaptures this meeting of park, street and architecture.
The Beacon Hill neighbourhood developed in the late 18th century around the new Massachusetts State House, completed in 1798. Old Boston, Beacon Hill from Derne Streetjoins other views of Mount Vernon Street and Bowdoin Street. These works suit a decorative scheme centred on façades, urban perspectives and Boston’s historic atmosphere.
Boston Tea Party and Bunker Hill
The harbor also appears as a site of revolutionary memory. The Boston Tea Party, Destruction of the Tea in Boston Harbor on 16 December 1773evokes the event after which the Boston Port Act of 1774 closed the harbor to ships.
Other images show Dorchester Heights or the Bunker Hill Monument. They offer a way to explore the geography of the Siege of Boston and the memory of the battle of 17 June 1775 without confusing documentary views, artistic interpretation and the event depicted.
Library, Churches and Fine Art
The collection includes several studies connected with Boston’s major cultural decorations. For the Boston Public Library, Edwin Austin Abbey created a cycle of fifteen panels devoted to the quest for the Holy Grail. The study for Solomon’s ship documents the preparation of this project.
The study for an angel in Trinity Church, by John La Farge, and the study for Prometheus, by John Singer Sargent, reveal another side of Boston: its decorative commissions, museums and public buildings.
