EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history as it showcases a drummer reenactor in old Quebec, portraying a member of the Colonial French army from the 18th century. The image transports us back to an era defined by imperialism and colonialism, where military might played a significant role. The vintage aesthetic of this digital photograph adds to its charm, reminding us of Canada's rich heritage and its connection to France. The replica drum held by the reenactor symbolizes tradition and historic significance, representing the crucial role that drummers played in communicating orders on the battlefield. Quebec City's old town serves as a picturesque backdrop for this scene, with its well-preserved buildings and narrow streets evoking memories of North America's colonial past. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of New France - once a thriving French colony known as "French Canada" - and how it shaped Canadian history. N. Carter from North Wind Picture Archives has skillfully captured not only an individual but also an entire era through this remarkable photograph. It serves as a testament to our collective memory and invites us to reflect on the struggles faced by both soldiers and colonists during those tumultuous times
