The Pennsylvania Hospital, Philadelphia by Pavel Petrovich Svinin: A large, tan-colored building with a symmetrical facade and a central section that protrudes slightly, featuring a triangular pediment and columns. The building has multiple stories, with rows of windows on each floor. A black iron fence runs in front of the building, with a gate in the center. There are several trees in front of the building, some of which are tall and have green leaves. A low wall runs along the left side of the image, with a road or path in front of it. The sky above is blue with white clouds.
