EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in Canadian history - the laying of the foundation stone for The New Harbour Works at Quebec. In this 19th-century print, we see HRH the Princess Louise, a member of the British royal family, performing this ceremonial act with grace and elegance. The scene is filled with excitement and anticipation as construction begins on this vital infrastructure project. The princess's presence adds an air of prestige to the occasion, highlighting its importance not only to Canada but also to the British Empire. The image showcases the collaboration between Canada and Britain during this era, symbolizing their shared commitment to progress and development. It serves as a reminder of how crucial harbors were for trade and transportation in that time period. The composition beautifully captures both architectural details and human emotions. From workers diligently preparing the site to distinguished guests observing from afar, every element tells a story of ambition and determination. As we gaze upon this historical engraving, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand an event that shaped Quebec's future.
