The following towns are featured: a panoramic print of Providence, Rhode Island, as seen from the dome of the new State House. It was drawn by May D. Mason and published by Providence Journal Co. in 1896. Providence was founded at the head of Narragansett Bay in the 1630's by theologian Roger Williams. When Rhode Island became a state in 1790, Providence was named state capital. Providence boomed during the American Industrial Revolution as many new manufacturers emerged early-on to take advantage of the marketing options of the era.

Matte Art Paper
This archival fine-art media has the look and feel of old-world handmade paper and is great for producing sharp, accurate reproductions.

The quality of these matte-finish maps is recognized by museums and galleries around the world.
Matte Canvas
Ideal for framing, the poly/cotton blend archival-grade canvas will satisfy even the most discriminating taste. This canvas has a medium gloss finish, and after printing via the Giclee process, your historical maps are guaranteed not to fade, yellow, or crack for more than 100 years. The result is truly magnificent and ideal for those seeking the look and feel of an actual painting.
