EDITORS COMMENTS
Fort Edmonton's storied past comes alive in this print from circa 1910-1915. The Hudson's Bay Company trading post stands sentinel on the north banks of the North Saskatchewan River, its rustic charm and industrial significance a testament to Canada's rich history.
As one of the earliest European settlements in Western Canada, Fort Edmonton played a pivotal role in shaping the region's development. This black-and-white photograph captures the fort's imposing exterior, with its wooden walls and peaked roofline blending seamlessly into the surrounding landscape.
The Bain News Service, renowned for their press photography expertise, has preserved this moment in time through their glass negative process. The resulting print is a masterclass in composition and tone, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder as we gaze upon this bygone era.
Step back in time to an age when the North Saskatchewan River was teeming with life, trade flourished along its banks, and Fort Edmonton stood tall as a symbol of resilience and progress. This vintage photograph is not only a window into Canada's past but also a celebration of human ingenuity and perseverance.
