The Paul Revere House in Boston's North End is the subject here, and this drawing sets its construction in careful detail: a cross section through the building alongside profiles of its window frames. Measured drawings like this were made to record old structures before repairs or restoration changed them, and they show how a house of the 1680s was framed, floored and lit. The Revere House is generally regarded as the oldest surviving residence in downtown Boston, and it is now part of Boston National Historical Park, so records of its fabric carry real weight for historians and conservators.
