EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph, titled "View of the city of Quebec, Canada, on the Saint Lawrence River," is an exquisite depiction of the historic city of Quebec as it appeared in the mid-19th century. The image is taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, a comprehensive ethnographic and anthropological record produced in Meissen, Germany, between 1835 and 1840. The print showcases the picturesque cityscape of Quebec, nestled on the banks of the Saint Lawrence River. The imposing Château Frontenac, a symbol of Quebec's rich history, stands proudly atop Cap-Diamant, overlooking the bustling harbor and the city below. The Saint Lawrence River, a vital waterway for trade and transportation, is dotted with ships and boats, adding to the vibrant scene. The lithograph also captures the diverse population of Quebec during this period. People of various ethnicities and backgrounds can be seen going about their daily lives, providing a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of the city. The intricate details of their costumes and customs offer a fascinating insight into the social fabric of the time. This image not only serves as a beautiful work of art but also as an essential historical document, offering a window into the past and shedding light on the people, customs, and costumes of Quebec during the 19th century. The handcoloring adds an extra layer of detail and depth, enhancing the overall visual appeal of the print.
