Huge original antique engraving print from an 1850s illustrated journal. It depicts three panoramic views of Helsinki Finland. They are the Fortress of Sveaborg, the city a, and the surrounding environs.

It has a blank back, meaning it was a rare and high quality supplement to the journal.

It is very large (double folio size), measuring approximately 22 x 16 inches (56 x 40.5 cm). The picture fills most of the page, with a caption below.

The print has a two vertical folds, where it was folded into the magazine long ago. Note that the fold line is clean and undamaged, because it was "tipped" into the binding. This was a luxury binding technique of that era, because the double page prints were free of binding holes down the center.

The page is in excellent condition for its age. See scan for an accurate view of the condition.

This print will come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
