Blick auf Detroit von der City Hall.
Black and white print of an engraving, "Blick auf Detroit von der City Hall." The print shows a boy leaning on a balcony rail at old City Hall with a dog at his feet. The view from City Hall overlooks Campus Martius with a view to the northeast. The Detroit Opera House and First Presbyterian Church are visible in the distance. Horsedrawn carriages are in the streets and people are walking on the sidewalks. The initials "J.D.W." are on the bottom right.
This print is a version of an engraving, titled "Glance at Detroit from the City Hall," that originally appeared in William Cullen Bryant's "Picturesque America."
