EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of both the power and beauty of nature, as well as the historic charm of Quebec. Taken from "Smiths Sketches in the Canadas" by Coke Smyth in 1838, this image showcases a rough sea crashing against the shores of Quebec. The unknown artist behind this masterpiece perfectly portrays the tumultuous waves, evoking a sense of awe and respect for Mother Nature's might. In addition to showcasing the raw power of the sea, this photograph also offers a glimpse into Quebec's rich history and architectural heritage. The view reveals an enchanting cityscape with its iconic buildings nestled along the waterfront. This juxtaposition between nature's force and human ingenuity creates a harmonious blend that is uniquely characteristic of Quebec. The Bibliotheque Nationale in Montreal has preserved this remarkable piece, allowing us to appreciate its artistic value centuries later. Leonard de Selva skillfully captured every intricate detail through his lens, ensuring that future generations can experience this visual delight. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when Canada was still emerging as a nation. It serves as a reminder not only of our connection to nature but also our ability to adapt and thrive amidst challenging circumstances. Through art like this, we gain insight into our past while finding inspiration for our future endeavors on North American soil.
