EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the resolute spirit of Louis de Baude de Frontenac, the Governor General of New France, in 1690. In this stunning colour lithograph by Louis Charles Bombled, we witness a pivotal moment in history as Frontenac defies the British demand for him to surrender Quebec. With unwavering determination etched on his face, Frontenac stands tall and proud amidst a backdrop of colonial warfare. The image symbolizes not only his personal defiance but also represents the steadfast resistance of French Canadians against British colonialism. Surrounded by Native American chiefs and soldiers, Frontenac's refusal to yield demonstrates his commitment to protecting both French and indigenous interests in North America. This powerful visual narrative encapsulates the complex dynamics between European powers and native populations during this era. The historical significance of this image is further emphasized by its inclusion as an illustration for Eugene Guenin's book "La Nouvelle-France" published in 1900. It serves as a reminder of New France's rich heritage and its role in shaping Canadian history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back to a time when courage and resilience were paramount. Through this photograph print, we are reminded that even in the face of adversity, individuals like Louis de Baude de Frontenac played an instrumental role in shaping our shared past.
