EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - Lord Strathcona Opening the Free Church Bazaar in his Native Town of Forres, 1900. The image showcases a bustling scene filled with both men and women, all eagerly participating in this religious event. The market-like atmosphere is alive with activity as people engage in trade, perusing books and various goods on display. Lord Strathcona, a prominent philanthropist known for his contributions to the British Empire, stands proudly on stage surrounded by members of the community. His elevated view allows him to overlook the vibrant vista of Forres, Scotland - a picturesque location that adds charm to this early 20th-century snapshot. The photograph not only highlights Lord Strathcona's commitment to Christianity but also emphasizes his deep connection to his Canadian roots. As an influential figure within society, he graciously opens this bazaar as an act of support for the Free Church. Through monochrome tones and sharp contrasts, this print evokes a sense of nostalgia while capturing the essence of an era long gone. It serves as a reminder of the importance placed on religion and community during that time period. Preserved by The Print Collector29 from Black & White Budget magazine published by J. P. Monckton's Black and White Publishing Company in 1900, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into Lord Strathcona's legacy as well as the cultural significance attached to such events in Forres' past.
