The drawing, skillfully crafted by renowned artist Paul Huet, beautifully illustrates the voyages to North America during 1854-1855. Engraved in "Le tour du monde" in 1861, this artwork is now part of the esteemed Selvas collection. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into an era when ships from all corners of the world would dock at this vibrant harbor.
