MODS Note
  • Kuchel & Dresel, artists and lithographers, published over 50 city views between 1855 and 1859. Most of these lithographs represent sites in California, but seven include Oregon cities. The images of buildings often surround a birds eye view of a city and represent scarce documentation of early built works. Source: Reps, John William. View and Viewmakers of Urban America, University of Missouri Press, 1984. p. 187.
