What the image shows

A black-and-white photograph taken from above of an excavation pit with a large rough stone masonry wall rising behind it. Two workers stand and crouch at the bottom of the pit among timber planks and wooden bracing, with a dark cable running across the lower part of the wall and some steam or dust drifting near the men. Loose planks and stakes lie around the edges of the pit, and the image is marked with the watermark 'Archives de la Ville de Montréal' in the lower right.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
