The image is a copy of an engraving from 1808, providing a unique glimpse into the early history of this bustling city. The Town House, an imposing neoclassical building, stands proudly at the center of the scene. Its grand façade, adorned with intricate details and columns, reflects the wealth and status of the Marquis of Donegall, who was one of the most influential figures in Belfast during the 18th and 19th centuries. Surrounding the Town House, the streets of Belfast come alive with activity. People of all ages and social classes can be seen going about their daily business. Horse-drawn vehicles, the primary mode of transportation at the time, line the cobblestone streets, adding to the hustle and bustle.
