This watercolor depicts the back of the Chapel, Maine Hall, Winthrop Hall, Adams Hall, the heating plant, and Sargent Gymnasium. As John Cross notes, “the perspective for the painting is from what would have been a second-floor window on the north side of the Moulton Union,” suggesting that this drawing may date to the winter of 1936, when Pach taught at Bowdoin.
