Birds-eye view of campus by H. D. Nichols's, published by W. T. Littig and Co., New York. Littig was known for panoramic views of college campuses. Nichols's signature with the date "1917" appears in the lower-right corner. The Main Hall dome is visible in this illustration — though it burned on October 10, 1916. It appears that this map was based on a 1907 version with buildings such as Birge Hall (1912) and Wisconsin High School (1914) added. This would account for the presence of the lost dome.
