Antique engraved view depicting Phillips Academy, Andover, Massachusetts, one of the most historic preparatory schools in the United States. The panoramic composition illustrates the academy buildings and surrounding grounds, rendered with fine architectural and landscape detail characteristic of 18th–19th century academic and topographical engravings.

The scene presents a documentary-style perspective intended to record the appearance of the campus during the period, making it both a historical artifact and a decorative collectible. The engraving is presented unframed with a wide original margin and mounted on period paper. No clearly legible artist signature is visible.

A desirable piece for collectors of American educational history, Massachusetts ephemera, and early American engravings.
