What the image shows
A large antique map on aged, browned paper showing the city plan of Montreal, with a dense grid of streets and blocks spreading across the upper part of the sheet. Along the lower edge, the words "River St. Lawrence" run across the water, with two islands and a compass rose in the water area, and the river edge at the left is shaded with blue-green wash marking the flooded area. The title "Plan of the City of Montreal" is printed in the lower right corner, with a scale bar and a small inscription beneath it.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
