Cape May was known as Cape Island in 1844 when writers/historians Barber & Howe published their book, Historical Collections of New Jersey​, that year.  The book included many black and white etchings like this one.

This view shows two of the original hotels, which were architecturally plain, simple 2-story boxes that faced the ocean.  The small houses behind them were often rented out to guests during the summer season.

This piece, painted on a modern raised panel with a whitewash border, measures 14" x 8.5".  The painted image measures 11" x 5.5".
