EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting Victoria Square in Montreal, Canada, circa 1895. The square's rich history is evident as we gaze upon its architectural features and timeless beauty. Originally laid out in 1813 and known as Place du Marche-a-Foin, it was later renamed after Queen Victoria in 1860. The image showcases a cityscape that exudes elegance and formality. Majestic buildings surround the square, reflecting the grandeur of the era. A prominent church with towering spires stands proudly amidst this urban landscape, symbolizing the significance of Christianity within society at that time. Nature intertwines harmoniously with man-made structures in this picturesque setting. Lush gardens adorned with various plants and trees add a touch of serenity to the bustling city scene. A graceful fountain becomes a focal point, providing a refreshing oasis for visitors seeking respite from their daily lives. Published by George Newnes Ltd in London during the late 19th century, this photograph captures not only an architectural marvel but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic expression through photography. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece from "Round the World in Pictures and Photographs" let us appreciate how our world has evolved while cherishing these glimpses into our past heritage.
