EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching by Franz Xavier Habermann, titled 'View of the main street in Quebec, 1755-1779,' offers a glimpse into the colonial past of Quebec, Canada. The image, created during the 18th century for the Imperial Franciscan Academy in the Low Countries, showcases the architectural grandeur and military presence of the bustling town. The main street is lined with impressive townhouses and buildings, their facades displaying intricate details and vibrant colors. Soldiers from the armed forces can be seen marching along the street, adding a sense of order and discipline to the scene. Men and women, dressed in the fashion of the time, engage in conversation and go about their daily business. The perspective of the etching draws the viewer's eye down the length of the street, revealing the rich history and cultural heritage of Quebec during the colonial period. The watercolor technique used by Habermann adds depth and texture to the image, bringing the scene to life. This etching is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the daily life and architecture of Quebec during the 18th century. It is a testament to the artistic skill of Franz Xavier Habermann and the Imperial Franciscan Academy, and a reminder of the enduring legacy of colonialism in Canada. The image is held in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and serves as a reminder of the important role that art and historical records play in preserving the past for future generations.
