Description

Full, exterior view of the Portland School of Fine and Applied Art (later, Portland School of Art, and after 1994, Maine College of Art), 97 Spring Street. Parallel to the name change, Maine College of Art acquired the building of the former Porteous Mitchell and Braun department store, and eventually relocated the campus into the Porteous building (522 Congress Street).

Built in 1832, the building is also referred to as Charles Quincy Clapp House.
