First Universalist Church, Gloucester
1930

A black and white etching depicting a quaint street scene with a prominent church tower in the background. The foreground shows a tree branch overhanging the left side, with residential buildings on both sides of the street. A few pedestrians are visible on the sidewalks, and there are parked cars along the curb. The scene conveys a sense of peaceful, small-town life in the early to mid-20th century. The bottom of the image includes the title "First Congregational Church, Kennebunk" and the artist's signature, "John Taylor Arms 1946."
