The Eleven of New England" takes its name from a group of eleven, a grouping that points to a collective subject rather than a single landmark or person. The shelflist card credits the Bufford name, most likely John H. Bufford, whose Boston lithography house produced portraits, views, and popular prints for New England buyers in the middle decades of the 1800s. Those prints were often sold as affordable decorations for parlors and public rooms, and they give a useful window into how the region presented itself to its own residents. The record does not say more, so the specific identity of the eleven remains open.
