EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Sydney Prior Hall, we are transported back to a winter's day in Ottawa, Canada in 1879. The image captures the Marquis of Lorne and Princess Louise engaging in a delightful tobogganing adventure. The Marquis of Lorne, also known as John Campbell, was the Duke of Argyll and served as Governor General of Canada from 1878 to 1883. His wife, Princess Louise, was the sixth child of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Together they embarked on an exciting journey across North America during their time in Canada. Here we see them embracing the Canadian winter tradition with sheer joy and enthusiasm. With snow-covered hills stretching out before them, they glide down on their sleds with grace and elegance befitting their royal status. This enchanting scene not only showcases the couple's adventurous spirit but also highlights their genuine connection with the Canadian people. As they embrace this popular pastime enjoyed by Canadians from all walks of life, it is evident that they were fully immersed in experiencing everything that Canada had to offer. Hall's intricate engraving beautifully captures every detail - from the expressions on their faces filled with exhilaration to the intricacies of their attire against a backdrop of snowy landscapes. This print serves as a timeless reminder of an extraordinary moment shared between royalty and ordinary citizens alike – where boundaries dissolve and pure joy unites us all through simple pleasures like tobogganing down a hillside together.
