"Le Port de Cherbourg"
Manufactory Petitpierre et Cie French
Not on view
The cones shown in the design are caissons being towed into the harbor to be sunk for the foundations of a dyke. On the largest one, with canopy, are the king and his party. The open boat at top is presumably a state barge for the use of the king. At the lower left corner is a view of town of Cherbourg.
