Description
This hand-color print features an aerial view of the city of Louisville, Kentucky as it appeared in 1854. The streets and blocks of the city are clearly shown, with a river complete with docks and boats in the foreground. The view is from a distance, rather than a view straight down onto the city. "Louisville. K.Y." is printed in block letters below the print, publication information printed below the image at the right.
