Robert Cottingham's Only Public Commission

In 1987, Robert Cottingham was commissioned by the Connecticut Bank and Trust Co. to create a series of unique works depicting American railroad imagery. The following twelve panels feature historical railroad company logos, or heralds as they are referred to in railroad jargon, that were installed in Union Station in Hartford for nearly 30 years.
