The image showcases the picturesque view of Dubuque on the banks of the mighty Mississippi River. With its rolling hills and steep terrain, this landscape captures both the natural beauty and urban development of the region. In this historic photograph, we can see the Illinois Central Railroad bridge prominently featured on the right side.
