This is a black-and-white engraved print titled as an antique view of Quebec, showing the city seen across a wide river under a cloudy sky. On the left, a tall sailing ship with furled and partly set sails sits in the foreground, while several small rowing boats float nearby. On the right, a sailing boat with two masts moves across the water toward a fortified town on a rocky promontory, with buildings and a hilltop fort visible. The print has a double-ruled border and a caption line printed beneath the image.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
