EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative 18th century print depicts the picturesque Rue des Recolets in the heart of Quebec's Haute Ville, or upper town. The narrow cobblestone street, lined with quaint houses and lush greenery, transports us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages and European colonial influence. The precise date of this print remains undisclosed, making it an intriguing historical puzzle. If we consider the timeframe before 1759, we can assume the soldiers depicted are French, as Quebec was under French rule during that period. Conversely, if the print dates after 1759, these soldiers would be British, following the British conquest of Quebec during the Seven Years' War. The Rue des Recolets, located in the historic district of Quebec City, has been a witness to significant events in Canadian history. Its name is believed to originate from the nearby Recollet Monastery, which was established in 1615 by the Recollet Friars. This monastery was an essential part of the French colonial community, serving as a center for religious and educational activities. The mid-18th century was a time of growth and prosperity for Quebec City. The city's strategic location made it a valuable possession for both the French and the British, leading to numerous military conflicts. This print offers a glimpse into the daily life of Quebec's colonial inhabitants and the architectural beauty of the city during this era. As we marvel at the intricate details of this print, we are reminded of the rich history that lies within the walls of Quebec City and the significant role it played in shaping the cultural landscape of Canada.
