What the image shows
A photograph of three large, faded sheets of tracing-like paper or map copies mounted side by side on a light brown board, two along the top and one centred below. Each sheet shows a dense, hand-drawn plan of a city street grid with faint lines, shading and smudged markings, and handwritten labels appear in the margins beside the lower sheet. A small blue-and-white printed label reading 1859 and a white catalogue tag numbered 121 are attached to the board at the lower right.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
