DescriptionDrawing of buildings in Hartford, Connecticut, from what is probably a second-story window, as an automobile is pictured on the street in the foreground. At the left, a hand is holding up a pair of eyeglasses, the lenses of which distort the buildings. The Connecticut National Bank (left) and One Financial Plaza are the two tall buildings depicted.
