EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "View of the City, Citadel, and Harbour of Quebec, North America" takes us back to the 19th century when this historic city was bustling with life. The print showcases a panoramic view that encapsulates the essence of Quebec's charm and grandeur. The artist from the English School masterfully captures every detail of this picturesque scene. From the towering Citadel perched atop Cap Diamant to the sprawling cityscape below, one can almost feel themselves transported into this bygone era. The intricate lines and shading bring depth and texture to each building, while careful attention is given to capturing the natural beauty surrounding it all. The harbor itself is teeming with activity as ships sail in and out, carrying goods from distant lands. It serves as a reminder of Quebec's strategic importance as a major trading hub during that time period. This particular engraving was originally published in The Illustrated News of the World on September 22nd, 1860. Its inclusion in such a prestigious publication speaks volumes about its significance both artistically and historically. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art today, we are reminded not only of Quebec's rich history but also how timeless beauty can be captured through skilled craftsmanship. It is an invitation to explore further into our past and appreciate the wonders that have shaped our present-day world.
