Additional Information
Produced and published by one of the most prolific American mapmakers of the nineteenth and twentieth century, Oakley Hoopes Bailey, this depiction of Peabody, Massachusetts, shows the city in a period of significant growth and prosperity in the years following the conclusion of the American Civil War. It was established as a farming community through the rivers and streams spurred a thriving milling industry, especially for the production of leather goods. Birds eye perspectives were produced to attract residents and merchants alike and featured prominent civic buildings, religious and educational institutions, and economic opportunities to increase population and expand development.
Located in the iconic North Shore region of Massachusetts, Peabody has long been an industrial center for manufacturing and attracted immigrants from across Western Europe, Ireland, Italy, Russia, and the Ottoman Empire, many of which established neighborhoods and communities along cultural lines. Bailey’s distinctive style and unique aesthetic immediately transport the viewer back in time, creating an indelible bond between the past and present. His career spanned more than five decades, and his panoramic maps are among the most noted for their artistic flourishes and ornate details. The region was among the first areas established by English settlers.
This is an authentic piece of American cartographical history that captures Peabody ascending to new heights as the Industrial Revolution took hold across the nation and spurred economic development throughout the Northeast. The late nineteenth century was one of the most significant periods in American history, and Peabody was experiencing considerable transformation.
