The fine view depicts detailed the harbor of Chicago with steam- and sailing boats in the foreground, next to it with the train station and lively boat traffic on the Chicago river.

The lithograph was just published three years after the great fire (1871) in Chicago. Below the lithograph we do find an extensive listing of important buildings, parks, churches, hotels, companies, etc. A highly decorative panoramic city view of the capital of the Midwest.
