Batavia is close enough to be part of our family's circle of friends. Its river setting suggested a natural way to arrange the drawing, with the Depot Museum and Batavia’s windmill heritage offering very different pieces of the town's character.
Details in the drawing
The wraparound artwork includes Batavia Depot Museum, Batavia’s windmill heritage, the Fox River and a bridge marked “Peace on Earth”. Each is part of the place this mug was drawn to remember.

A gift idea with a real place behind it
The family connection in this story makes Batavia Depot Museum and Batavia’s windmill heritage more than a checklist of landmarks. If you are giving the mug to a relative or an old friend, name the particular memory that brought you to Batavia. That note can make a practical gift feel unmistakably theirs.
