his 1848 original oil on canvas painting in its original frame is a panoramic view of the city of Milwaukee (pop. 16,000) from the hilltop behind Blossom’s brewery looking southeast. The foreground shows the main Eagle Brewery brick building with a wood frame building to the left. The brick building was destroyed by fire in 1852. A beer cellar was also built into the hillside. Part of the beer cellar survived until the 1970’s. The painting is in the collection of the Milwaukee County Historical Society.
