EDITORS COMMENTS
Crossing the Ice Bridge: A Winter Journey Through Montreal, Quebec, Canada (circa 1910) This photograph captures the essence of winter in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, during the early 1900s. The image, taken from the Mary Evans Grenville Collins Postcard Collection, depicts a horse-drawn wagon and several sleds making their way across the frozen Saint Lawrence River. The ice bridge, a remarkable feat of engineering, serves as the only passage during the severe winter months. The thick, iced river stretches out before us, its still waters reflecting the clear, blue winter sky. The air is thick with the biting cold, as seen in the breaths of the horses and the bundled-up figures of the passengers. The scene is one of determination and resilience, as people and goods are transported across the river in this harsh, yet beautiful, winter landscape. The Quebec province, located in eastern Canada, is known for its extreme winters. The Saint Lawrence River, which flows from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean, freezes over each year, providing a unique means of transportation. The ice bridge, a testament to the resourcefulness of the people, allowed for the continuation of essential services and commerce during the long, frigid months. This photograph, taken around 1910, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the daily life and challenges faced by the people of Montreal during the winter season. It is a reminder of the strength and adaptability of the human spirit, as well as the breathtaking beauty of a winter's day in Canada.
