An engraved map of a fortified town on a river, titled in English along the bottom 'Plan of the Town & Fortifications of Montreal or Ville Marie in Canada', with the words 'The River St. Laurence' across the lower centre. The main plan shows a grid of streets, walls and bastions laid out along the riverbank, with a smaller inset map in the upper left and a framed view of the town from the water in the upper right, where a row of buildings and spires stands above the shore. The paper is aged and yellowed, with handwritten reference numbers in pencil and ink at the top edge.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
