Plan of a building (possibly an artillery workshop)

Anoniem / Anonymous

Title Leupe: "Plan en opstand van een gebouwtje (vermoedelijk een vuurwerkerij in Suriname)."

These floor plan and two views are likely related to the urban development plans for Paramaribo from the late eighteenth century. The presence of the laboratory suggests this might be an artillery workshop. On the rearside it reads: "No.19, Register 17, deel 1, folio 89" and the map is marked ’Depôt des cartes, plans et journaux de la Marine’.

Scale-bar: 1 : 96 or 8 Rhineland feet of 1 ‘duim’.
