A blue-toned photographic postcard showing the Marktplatz (Market Square) of Bonn on the Rhine, during the French occupation of the Rhineland. The caption uses the French form "Bonn-sur-le-Rhin," reflecting the occupation administration. The Baroque Rathaus (City Hall) is prominent at center, with the towers of the Bonner Münster visible at left, and market stalls, pedestrians, and a double-arm gas lamp animating the square.
