EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled ""My Guns will give my Answer", Frontenac, 1690" by Henry Sandham depicts a significant moment in Canadian history. The vibrant color lithograph showcases Count Frontenac, a prominent figure in Quebec during the late 17th century. With his resolute gaze and commanding presence, he symbolizes the determination of Canadians to defend their land. This artwork was created as an illustration for "A Picture History of Canada" by Kathleen Moore and Jessie McEwen, published around 1930. It captures the essence of the time when Canada was still emerging as a nation and facing challenges from neighboring territories. The title itself, ""My Guns will give my Answer"", suggests that Count Frontenac relied on military strength to protect his people and assert their sovereignty. The guns depicted in the image serve as powerful symbols of resistance against external threats. Through this artwork, Sandham pays homage to both Canadian heritage and American influence in North America during that era. It reminds us of the struggles faced by early settlers while also highlighting their unwavering spirit. As we observe this remarkable piece, it is impossible not to feel inspired by Count Frontenac's resolve and dedication to his homeland. This print serves as a visual reminder of Canada's rich history and its enduring commitment to safeguarding its territory.
