In the foreground are the Capitol Park, the First Baptist Church on Carroll Street; and beyond, the Dane County Courthouse and St. Raphael's Catholic Church (steeple not yet constructed), on Main Street. Lake Monona and Monona Bay are in the distance. Until it moved into the Capitol in 1866, the Wisconsin Historical Society rented space in the basement of the Baptist Church. |
