EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Entering British Columbia" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the allure of this Canadian province. The print showcases the skilled craftsmanship of an English School artist, whose attention to detail brings this scene to life. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are drawn towards a group of figures standing at the border between America and British Columbia. Their expressions reflect a mix of anticipation and curiosity as they prepare to embark on their journey into this new land. The landscape surrounding them is nothing short of breathtaking. Towering mountains covered in lush greenery dominate the backdrop, while a winding river meanders through valleys below. It's easy to imagine oneself being transported into this picturesque setting, feeling the crisp mountain air against one's face. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for Edwin Hopper's book "The World its Cities and Peoples". Its inclusion in such a publication speaks volumes about British Columbia's significance during that era - it was seen as an intriguing destination worth exploring. Now preserved within a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate both its historical value and artistic merit. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we can delve deeper into our fascination with history by immersing ourselves in these visual treasures from times long gone by.
