EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historic print captures the essence of national pride with its depiction of The Union Jack and the flag and arms of Canada. Created by an English School artist in the 20th century, this colour lithograph showcases both symbols side by side, representing a significant moment in Canadian history. The image was originally featured as an illustration for A Picture History of Canada, a book authored by Kathleen Moore and Jessie McEwen in the early 1930s. It beautifully portrays the union between Great Britain and Canada through their respective flags, while also highlighting elements unique to Canada's identity. The red ensign proudly displays the coat of arms featuring St. Andrew, St. Patrick, and St. George alongside various weaponry symbolizing defense and strength. This powerful imagery represents not only Canada's historical ties to Britain but also its own distinct heritage. As one gazes upon this photo print, they are transported back to a time when unity among nations was celebrated through visual artistry. The presence of both flags serves as a reminder that despite being geographically separated from each other, Canadians share common values with their American neighbors across North America. Overall, this piece evokes feelings of patriotism and appreciation for our shared histories within North America's Western Hemisphere. It is a testament to the enduring power of symbols that unite us all as Americans - whether we reside in Canada or the United States.
