This drawing was done by the deaf architect Olof Hanson, who was a teacher at the Minnesota Institute for Defectives (Deaf, Blind and Feeble-Minded) during 1891-1893. From left to right, the South and North Wings of Mott Hall are depicted. The central tower is not shown as it did not exist during the time period depicted. At the bottom of the drawing is the signature "O.H. del." Block letters at the bottom read: "Minnesota School For The Deaf And The Blind From 1873 to 1879." Cursive writing at the bottom reads: "Make the cut about 6-3/4" from x to x and leave off the ends," in reference to two "x" marks made on the left and right ends of the drawing.
