This cityscape features the State House, the brilliantly lighted Park Theatre, and Washington Street's bustling commercial life.  The tower of the old Marion County Courthouse can be seen in the distance.

Groll, a German artist, came to judge the German paintings at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and also spent time visiting relatives here.
