EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts Union Depot in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, between 1890 and 1901. The image captures the grandeur and industrial might of the era, with the imposing railway station standing proudly at the heart of the scene. The Union Depot was a significant transportation hub during this period, connecting Toronto to the rest of North America through the extensive rail network. The intricate architectural details of the building are evident in the photograph, with its arched windows, ornate brickwork, and distinctive chimneys. The photograph was taken using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, a common photographic technique of the time. The creator of this photograph remains unknown, but it is believed to have been taken by either Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, both prominent photographers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph is now part of the historic collection at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C., a testament to its historical significance. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when rail transport played a pivotal role in shaping the landscape and connecting communities across vast distances.
