Description
Original graphite-on-paper drawing of the historic First Congregational Church of New Village (Centereach, Long Island, NY). Captures the clapboard façade, six-over-six windows, and the later bell tower with careful tonal shading. The drawing measures 7 x 5 inches. I’m including the original printed caption slip (notes 1818 construction; 1927 bell tower; used until April 1963; cemetery at rear) to accompany the piece for provenance.
