A secondary allegorical figure at left mirrors the central composition, while a figure of Justice (or a related civic allegory) occupies the right portion of the note. The design is executed in the detailed intaglio style characteristic of Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson productions of the mid-nineteenth century. |

The New Orleans Canal & Banking Company was chartered in 1831 primarily to finance the New Orleans Canal — a commercial waterway connecting the city's back basin to Lake Pontchartrain. Banking was almost an afterthought in the original mandate. By the 1840s, however, the institution had become a reasonably sound commercial bank, one of the few Louisiana banks to weather the 1837 panic without permanent suspension.
Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson were among the most technically accomplished bank note engravers working in antebellum America, later absorbed into the American Bank Note Company in 1858 — which tightly brackets the printing window for notes bearing their imprint.
