EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Ice Shove Commissioner Street Montreal" captures a remarkable moment in the history of Montreal, Quebec. Taken around 1880 by William McFarlane Notman, a renowned Canadian photographer, this albumen silver print showcases the sheer force and beauty of nature. The image depicts an awe-inspiring ice shove on Commissioner Street in Montreal. The city's streets are completely engulfed by massive sheets of ice that have been pushed ashore by the powerful currents of the St. Lawrence River. The scene is both mesmerizing and intimidating as it reveals the raw power of nature against man-made structures. Commissioner Street appears almost unrecognizable under this icy invasion. Buildings and carriages are partially buried beneath mounds of snow and ice, creating an otherworldly landscape that seems to defy logic. It serves as a testament to the resilience and adaptability required to live in such extreme climates. William McFarlane Notman masterfully captures this extraordinary event with his keen eye for detail and composition. His ability to freeze this fleeting moment in time allows us to appreciate both the destructive force unleashed by Mother Nature and our own vulnerability in its presence. This photograph from Liszt Collection serves as a visual reminder of our place within nature's grand design – humbling yet inspiring us with its breathtaking beauty.
