Paul Sawyier (March 23, 1865 – November 5, 1917), one of Kentucky's most renowned artists, was an American impressionist painter of great renown. He painted this view of town in 1917. I stood on that very corner in the rain today in front of the Bank that still stands at the corner of Ann and Main Streets. The watercolor painting features a row of buildings on the left side, a building on the right, several figures holding umbrellas, as well as several horses with carts or buggies. The original is in the Kentucky Historical Society Collection in Frankfort.
