  • A watercolor painting depicts a 19th-century frontier town square. A large, multi-story white building with a central belfry-style tower dominates the center-left background. Several smaller wooden buildings and log cabins are scattered around a large, open dirt area. In the foreground, a low wooden fence separates the viewer from the scene. Several figures are visible, including people on horseback and others standing or walking.
