NOTE
:  Th
is is NOT a postcard

but because many researchers & local history collectors
search for business artifacts and historically important regional images like this under various Postcard headings, the

Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA
In 1876, the museum moved to a highly ornamented brick
Gothic Revival building designed by John Hubbard Sturgis and Charles Brigham, noted for its massed architectural terracotta.
It was located in Copley Square at Dartmouth and St. James Streets
It was built almost entirely of brick and terracotta, which was imported from England, with some stone about its base.
After the MFA moved out in 1907, this original building was demolished, and
the Copley Plaza Hotel (now the Fairmont Copley Plaza) replaced it in 1912.
