The wood engraving, created by an American artist in 1853, beautifully captures the architectural details of this historic building. The Custom House stands tall with its impressive dome dominating the skyline. It is surrounded by a lively street scene filled with people going about their daily activities. A horse-drawn carriage adds a touch of elegance to the mid-19th century setting while showcasing transportation methods of that time.
