A then-and-now.
It's like a mirror!
Boston Common at Twilight by Childe Hassam, 1885-1886, from the Museum of Fine Arts collection.
And, from earlier today, May 20, 2012.

well done
Always thought of doing this, but never got around to it. Glad someone did!
Me too
Whenever Adam posts old photos from the BPL's Flickr pool I think how cool it would be to try to recreate them. For some reason it seems even cooler to "update" a painting.
Very Nice!
And the first thing I thought when I saw this was, "Yes, that's Boston - people barely shovel their sidewalks now, and didn't then either."
