EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in the formation of the North West Mounted Police of Canada. Taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases an artillery detachment at Fort Macleod, a significant establishment dating back to 1874. The image exudes a sense of discipline and precision as the mounted police engage in drill practice with their weapons. The mounties, dressed impeccably in their uniforms, stand proudly beside their crew members as they prepare for parade duty. In the background looms a formidable cannon, symbolizing both power and protection during those tumultuous times. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the old west era, we are transported back to a time when law enforcement was establishing its constitutional authority on the March West. The dedication and commitment of these brave men is palpable through their focused expressions and synchronized movements. Preserved within this photograph is not only a piece of Canadian history but also an artistic representation captured through early photography techniques. This print serves as a testament to both the skill of the American photographer who took it and our collective fascination with capturing moments frozen in time. Displayed here courtesy of Peter Newark American Pictures, this remarkable image reminds us that even amidst chaos and uncertainty, there were individuals who stood tall to protect what they believed in - forging ahead into uncharted territories with unwavering determination.
