Title: 'Summer View of Brooklyn Village in 1820. From the original painting by S.J. Guy [sic] in the possession of the Long Island Historical Society.'
Description:

Brooklyn Village comprised what is today Downtown Brooklyn and Brooklyn Heights. This painting represents the view from 11 Front Street. It remains in the collection of what is now the Brooklyn Historical Society. Though this reproduction (from an unknown source) attributes the painting to Seymour Joseph Guy (1824-1910), it is actually by Francis Guy (1760-1820).
