Description
I did a little research while I was working on this painting in downtown Boston.We are fortunate that the Boston Landmarks commission has a lot of information on this building including its specs and history.Here is a synopsis:
The Proctor Building is significant as the most elegant and extensive
example of the use of architectural terra cotta on a small commercial
bUilding in downtown Boston. The building's small scale, high relief
sculptural ornamentatioh, fine craftsmanship and rare use of the Spanish
Renaissance style make it unique among Boston commercial buildings. It
is also important as an excellent example of the work of a major late
19th century Boston architectural firm, Winslow and Wetherell.
