American architectural survey, 5/5

[1600-1779] [1780-1849] [1850-1899] [1900-1944]

Instructions: this is a two-window operation. When you click on the highlighted "xx" here (with your left mouse button, Wintel users; with your only mouse button, Mac users), the image will open in a separate window. Things will work best if you stagger these two windows slighly, so that you can activate either at will. When you want to choose a different image, DO NOT use the back button on your browser window displaying the images; activate the other window with the long list of links, and then you will not have to wait for that to reload each time. When you choose something from the list of links, it should display in the other window each time.
Key:

= digital image ready, linked.

= image scanned, link coming.

= image acquired, digitizing not yet complete.
* = generic category represented in texts by different examples.
If you see gaps that you are able to fill with images you have the rights to, or that are clearly in the public domain, and you would like to contribute them to this project, contact us at jcohen@brynmawr.edu.
