Vintage Lantern Slide Hand Tinted: "Evacuation of Fort Nelson" Canadian History dimensions.3.25 x 4"


This expertly hand tinted Lantern Slide of the painting depicting Hudson's Bay Company personnel surrender Fort Nelson to French forces after the Battle of Hudson's Bay is an important moment in the evolution of French Canadian history. The French Defeated the British and forced The British company Hudson Bay personnel into a forced evacuation of Fort Nelson.


The Battle of Hudson's Bay, also known as the Battle of York Factory, was a naval battle fought during the War of the Grand Alliance (known in England's North American colonies as "King William's War"). The battle took place on 5 September 1697, when a French warship commanded by Captain Pierre Le Moyne d'Iberville defeated an English squadron commanded by Captain John Fletcher. As a result of this battle, the French took York Factory, a trading post of the Hudson's Bay Company.


The use of lantern slides for photographic displays had a profound impact on the dissemination of knowledge, entertainment, and art. It was an important bridge between the pre-modern era of visual culture and the rise of photography, film, and modern multimedia presentations. By facilitating the public sharing of images on a larger scale, lantern slides democratized access to visual information and laid the groundwork for the visual media we use today.
