EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa, Canada, circa 1900. The image captures these iconic structures before they were ravaged by a devastating fire in 1916. Designed in the Victorian High Gothic style, which was completed in 1876, this architectural masterpiece stands proudly on Parliament Hill. The photograph is part of the collection "Scenic Marvels of the New World" edited by Professor George R. Cromwell and published by C. N. Greig & Co around 1900. It offers a glimpse into Canada's rich political history and serves as a testament to its enduring democratic values. The neo-Gothic design elements are strikingly evident in this monochrome landscape, with intricate details adorning every corner of the buildings' exteriors. The image transports viewers back to an era when politics played out within these hallowed halls. While we may not know who specifically captured this remarkable shot, it remains a valuable piece of historical documentation that highlights Ontario's geographical features and cultural heritage. As we admire this print from Heritage Images, let us reflect upon how architecture can symbolize power and democracy while standing as a testament to our collective past.
