Willoughby to commission a second version of the Gettysburg Cyclorama, which opened in Boston, Massachusetts, on December 22, 1884. From its opening until 1892, approximately 200,000 people viewed the painting.[5] The Boston version was housed in a specially designed building, the Cyclorama Building, on Tremont Street,[9] and was the site of popular public lectures on the battle.[1] Two additional copies of the cyclorama were made: the third was first exhibited in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, beginning in February 1886 and a fourth debuted in Brooklyn, New York, in October 1886 -- --- SEE PHOTOS !!!
