EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back in time to witness the awe-inspiring beauty of Kakabeka Falls, located on Lake Superior in Ontario, Canada. The falls derive their name from the indigenous Ojibwe word "gakaabikaa" meaning waterfall over a cliff - a fitting description for this breathtaking natural phenomenon. Taken by an unknown photographer around 1900, this monochrome image showcases the sheer power and grandeur of Kakabeka Falls as water cascades down its rocky cliffs. The falls are formed by the Kaministiquia River, which adds to their allure and magnificence. The photograph is part of Scenic Marvels of the New World edited by Professor George R. Cromwell - an esteemed geographer who dedicated his life to exploring and documenting geographical wonders across North America. His collaboration with C. N. Greig & Co. , responsible for publishing this remarkable collection, allows us to appreciate these stunning landscapes even today. As we gaze upon this historic print, we can almost feel the misty spray on our faces and hear the thunderous roar echoing through the wilderness surrounding Kakabeka Falls. It serves as a reminder of nature's raw power and its ability to captivate generations with its timeless beauty. This print from Heritage Images invites us to immerse ourselves in Canada's rich natural heritage while paying homage to
