1967rif. 1608Canadian Scenery Illustrated. From Drawings By W.H. Bartlett 2 vols Title: Canadian Scenery Illustrated. From Drawings By W.H. Bartlett Author: Nathaniel Parker Willis Artist: William Henry Bartlett Publisher: Peter Martin Associates Limited Toronto Publication Date: 1967 Format: Two volumes hardcover likely with dust jackets as a facsimile or commemorative edition. Overview and Significance This 1967 two-volume set is a modern reissue of a landmark 19th-century work that was instrumental in shaping the European and American vision of Canada. Originally published in London between 1840 and 1842 Canadian Scenery is not just a book but a cultural artifact combining the eloquent prose of American writer Nathaniel Parker Willis with the exquisitely detailed engravings based on the drawings of English artist William Henry Bartlett. The 1967 edition by Peter Martin Associates made this historically significant work accessible to a 20th-century audience preserving its charm and historical importance. Content and Scope The work is a comprehensive pictorial and descriptive tour of the landscapes towns and waterways of pre-Confederation Canada then known as British North America. The two volumes are structured as a journey covering a vast territory: Volume 1 typically focuses on Eastern Canada and the St. Lawrence River Valley including scenes from: Quebec: The Citadel of Quebec Montmorency Falls the Plains of Abraham. Ontario: Niagara Falls from multiple vantage points the Thousand Islands Brockville Toronto then "Little York" and the then-capital Kingston. The mighty St. Lawrence River itself is a central character. Volume 2 often expands the journey to more remote and dramatic locales including: The Saguenay River with its towering cliffs. The Great Lakes Lake Huron Lake Superior. The Ottawa River and the early Rideau Canal. Scenes from the Maritime Provinces. The Illustrations W.H. Bartlett The primary draw of this work has always been the art. William Henry Bartlett 1809-1854 was a master topographical artist. His drawings are renowned for their: Accuracy and Detail: They provide a priceless historical record of the Canadian landscape before widespread industrialization. Romantic Sensibility: Bartlett composed his scenes to evoke a sense of the sublime and the picturesque often including small human figures to emphasize the grandeur and scale of the wilderness. Technical Execution: The original illustrations were translated into finely wrought steel engravings a labor-intensive process that resulted in images of remarkable clarity and texture. The Text N.P. Willis Nathaniel Parker Willis 1806-1867 was a popular American author poet and magazine editor. His text complements Bartlett's images by providing: Descriptive Narration: Vividly painting the scenes Bartlett captured visually. Historical Anecdotes: Weaving in stories of early explorers settlers and Indigenous peoples. Contemporary Observations: Offering insights into the social and economic life of the colonies in the 1840s. While sometimes romanticized his prose captures the spirit of the age and the contemporary perception of Canada as a land of immense natural beauty and potential. The 1967 Edition Peter Martin Associates This particular printing is a mid-20th century facsimile. Its key characteristics are: Format: A high-quality reproduction likely attempting to replicate the feel of the original edition often found in a sturdy hardcover format. Audience: It was aimed at the book collector the history enthusiast and the art lover in Canada published during a period of rising nationalism and interest in Canadian heritage. Value: While the primary historical and artistic value lies with the original 1840s edition this 1967 printing is itself a collectible item representing the enduring appeal of Bartlett's iconic views. Legacy and Importance Canadian Scenery Illustrated is more than a picture book. It is a foundational work in Canadian iconography. Bartlett's views of Niagara Falls Quebec City and the St. Lawrence became the definitive images of these places for generations. This book played a crucial role in promoting tourism and immigration to Canada by showcasing its dramatic and "picturesque" landscapes to the world. In summary this 1967 two-volume set is a beautiful and important reprint of a 19th-century classic that defined the visual identity of Canada for the world making it a treasured possession for collectors and a valuable resource for historians and art lovers alike.
