EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing the grandeur of Place d'Armes in Montreal, Canada. The focal point of this magnificent square is the awe-inspiring Notre-Dame Basilica, a true marvel of Gothic Revival architecture. At the time this photograph was taken, the Notre-Dame Basilica stood as North America's largest church, a testament to its significance and beauty. Its construction was completed in the 1840s and it retained its title as the continent's largest for over half a century. The image showcases the exterior of this neo-Gothic masterpiece against a monochrome backdrop, emphasizing its intricate details and imposing presence. The Victorian-era charm is evident in every corner of this architectural gem. As we gaze upon this historic scene captured by an unknown creator, we are transported to an era where religion played a central role in society. The Roman Catholic influence is palpable through this religious symbol that stands tall amidst Montreal's landscape. This print from Scenic Marvels of the New World edited by Professor George R. Cromwell allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also highlights how faith shaped communities during that period. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past and acknowledge their importance as they continue to inspire generations with their timeless allure.
