EDITORS COMMENTS
Stephen Parrish's captivating etching, 'Quebec, 1887,' transports us back in time to the late 19th century. This monochrome masterpiece, created on wove paper, showcases the picturesque harbor of Quebec City, Canada. The etching in black and white beautifully highlights the architectural grandeur of the buildings along the waterfront, their intricate details standing out against the calm, reflective surface of the harbor. Boats, both large and small, dot the harbor, adding a sense of activity and industry to the scene. Fishing boats, with their distinctive shapes and nets, are a testament to the region's rich maritime heritage. The transportation of goods and people by water was a vital aspect of life in Quebec during this era, and Parrish expertly captures the essence of this bustling harbor. Parrish's skillful use of etching techniques brings the scene to life, from the delicate textures of the buildings to the intricate details of the boats and their rigging. The etching is a stunning example of the artistic prowess of the 19th century and serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of both Canada and the United States during this period. This evocative work of art is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of Quebec or the art of the 19th century. It is currently housed in the prestigious National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
