The website misidentifies this as “Delphi,” New York. It’s actually Delhi, the county seat in Delaware County. The building in the back is not the town hall, but the county courthouse. The courthouse, monument and bandstand look much the same today, though Dohanos used some artistic license and moved the bandstand from it’s actual position to make a better picture. There are still people in Delhi who claim to be kids in this painting.
