The Queen's Birthday in Newfoundland, the Fisheries Protection Ships in St. John's Harbour firing a Salute
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph by Joseph Nash that captures a momentous celebration in Canada's history. The artwork, created in the 19th century, showcases the grandeur and patriotism of this special occasion. In this vibrant print, we witness the majestic Fisheries Protection Ships lined up in St. John's Harbour as they fire an impressive salute to honor Queen Victoria on her birthday. The ships' cannons release billowing clouds of smoke into the air while their resounding booms echo across the water. Nash masterfully portrays this scene with meticulous attention to detail, capturing every aspect of naval pomp and ceremony. From the meticulously rendered ships to the bustling activity onshore, his artistry transports us back to a time when such displays were eagerly anticipated events for both locals and visitors alike. This lithograph not only celebrates Canada's rich maritime heritage but also serves as a testament to British influence during that era. It reminds us of Newfoundland's close ties with England and its importance within Great Britain's empire. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of how art has preserved moments from our past and allows us to relive them today. Nash's skillful rendering invites us into history itself – inviting us to imagine ourselves amidst these festivities and experience firsthand the excitement that filled St. John’s Harbour on that memorable day.
