EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Great Fire at Montreal: Dalhousie Square, Hays House, 1852" takes us back in time to a significant moment in history. The image showcases the devastating blaze that engulfed the city of Montreal during the Victorian era. The smoke billows ominously into the sky as flames consume buildings and homes alike. Dalhousie Square, once a bustling public space filled with life and activity, now stands desolate amidst the chaos of destruction. The prominent Hays House can be seen in the foreground, its architectural beauty juxtaposed against the fiery backdrop. This engraving from 1852 captures not only a tragic event but also serves as an illustrative technique to document this historical incident. The vintage and retro style of this engraved image adds an extra layer of charm and nostalgia to its overall appeal. It transports viewers back to a bygone era when such engravements were popular artistic expressions. As we gaze upon this piece from Liszt Collection's Arkheia series, we are reminded of how art can capture moments frozen in time. It allows us to reflect on our past while appreciating both the resilience of those who lived through such disasters and their enduring impact on architecture and urban development.
