The Maine State House in Augusta, the seat of state government since 1832, is the building this print records, and its granite-and-brick façade with a central dome and columned portico gives it the stately profile of a New England capitol. The structure was designed by Charles Bulfinch, the Boston architect who also shaped the U.S. Capitol's early form, and it was completed in the early 1830s on a hill overlooking the Kennebec River. Its later additions, including a 1909 expansion and the gilded dome that followed the original design, are worth looking for when comparing the building's appearance across decades.
