London: Printed for John Bowles, Robert Sayer, Thomas Jefferys, Carington Bowles, and Henry Parker, (ca. 1761). Engraved view, by P.C. Canot, after a painting by Pugh, from a design by Pownall. Trimmed to platemark; faint vertical crease at center; scattered expert repairs at left and right edges. 14 1/4 x 20 3/8 in. (362 x 517 mm). In mat. Deak 106

An important image of colonial Boston, from Thomas Pownall's famous and very rare Scenographia Americana.

Pownall's drawing of Boston, here engraved by Peter Charles Canot (1710-1777), was one of six prints in the Scenographia Americana that were based on Pownall's sketches. This particular image was worked into a painting by Pugh and it was from this that the engraving was made by Canot.
