EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Quebec in 1890, a city founded by the renowned French explorer Samuel de Champlain in 1608. The image is sourced from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" a book written by Edmund Ollier and published by Cassell and Company Ltd. It offers a glimpse into the bustling maritime activity on the Saint Lawrence River, showcasing several sailboats gracefully gliding through its waters. The photograph captures the essence of a busy day in this historic Canadian colony. The cliff-top housing along the coast creates an impressive skyline against the backdrop of picturesque cliffs. As we gaze at this monochrome scene, it transports us to a time when transportation relied heavily on sailing boats for trade and exploration. Although the creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, their ability to capture such an exquisite vista is evident. The composition invites viewers to appreciate both the natural beauty of Quebec's landscape and its significance in history. As we admire this engraving from over a century ago, it serves as a reminder of how far our world has progressed since then. This piece not only showcases Quebec's geographical features but also provides valuable insight into its cultural heritage. Whether used for educational purposes or simply appreciated for its aesthetic value, this print allows us to connect with Canada's past while appreciating its enduring charm.
