EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, capturing the dry dock at Esquimalt in British Columbia. The unknown creator of this image beautifully depicts the bustling activity of this historic location on Vancouver Island's southern tip. The photograph showcases a busy day at the docks, with people going about their daily tasks against a backdrop of towering structures and railings. The chain-link fence separates the viewer from the action, adding depth to the composition. This snapshot into history offers a glimpse into Canada's shipping industry during that era. Taken from "A Tour Through the New World America" by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell, this image is part of an invaluable collection documenting North American landscapes and culture in monochrome beauty. It serves as a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence. As we explore this scene frozen in time, we can almost hear the sounds of ships docking and feel the energy pulsating through Esquimalt Harbour. This print allows us to connect with our past while appreciating how far we have come as a nation.
