Large double-page engraving, with centrefold. A low panoramic view of the city's sea-front, busy more-detailed foreground of anchored British warship, western merchant vessel, working junks and other local craft; above which two panoramic views from the sea of Cape Macartney with Cape Gower, and Cape Macartney with Staunton's Is…land. Sheet size 565x780mm. Plate size 545x765mm. Title, publishing details ("London. Published April 12 1796 by G. Nicol") and engraver's name beneath main view, titles beneath each of the upper views, and plate number at upper right. That section of lower margin outside of plate mark narrow, that section of right-hand margin outside of plate mark very narrow and gently tapering from foot until sheet edge and plate mark coincide. Upper & lower sheet edges lightly toned, main view faintly & patchily so, and upper views very faintly & patchily so. Light spotting both inside & outside of plate mark in lower margin and towards foot of left-hand margin; a few minor spots elsewheres. Late-18th century engraving, generally clean and in VERY GOOD condition.
