EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a historic view of the town and harbour of Halifax, as seen from Dartmouth shore in 1777. Created by Joseph Frederick Wallet DesBarres, this intricate engraving showcases the fortifications that were present during that time period. The detailed watercolor work, with a border added by the colorist, brings to life the bustling activity of boats and transportation in the area.
The scene depicted in this print is not just a snapshot of history, but also a testament to exploration and discovery during the early years of North America's development. The request for publication by Lord Howe adds an air of importance to this piece, highlighting its significance in British maritime history.
As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel yourself stepping back in time to witness daily life in Halifax centuries ago. The vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail make it easy to imagine what it must have been like to stand on Dartmouth shore and take in the sights and sounds of this thriving harbor town.
This print serves as a reminder of our shared past and the enduring legacy of those who came before us. It is a true masterpiece that captures both the beauty and complexity of colonial life in 18th century North America.
