The entrance front of the Benton County Courthouse in Corvallis, Oregon, is the view this print presents, with the building's main facade and approach at the center. It is a photogravure, a process valued in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for its fine tonal detail, and it was published by Fred. Dawson. The caption card gives no date, and the record notes that its information is unverified, so the year of the image is uncertain. Courthouse views like this were often issued in series documenting county buildings across the United States, and a reference copy is listed in one such microfiche collection.
