EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical gem from the 18th century - Fort Ontario in Oswego, New York. The West view of this majestic fort on Lake Ontario takes us back to the year 1760, during the French and Indian War. The wash drawing by Thomas Davies beautifully captures the essence of this colonial stronghold. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a time when tensions ran high between English and French forces in North America. The fort stands proudly against the backdrop of Lake Ontario, its sturdy walls and strategic positioning symbolizing strength and power. The landscape surrounding Fort Ontario is equally breathtaking. A midday sun casts gentle shadows over lush greenery while a sailing ship gracefully glides across the lake's shimmering waters. This scene perfectly encapsulates both natural beauty and human ingenuity. Thomas Davies' meticulous attention to detail brings every element of this historic moment to life. From the architectural intricacies of the fort's exterior to the serene atmosphere created by nature's presence, each stroke tells a story. This print serves as a reminder of our rich history and allows us to appreciate not only the physical structure but also all those who played their part in shaping our nation's past. It is an invaluable piece that connects us with our roots and invites contemplation about how far we have come since those early days on Lake Ontario's shores.
