Views of Halifax photographs
Collection · 1870-1890
The collection consists of one photograph album which was compiled by Thomas Mower Martin, an English-born Canadian painter. Most of the photographs depict scenes in Halifax and Cape Breton, including the Public Gardens, the Citadel, Melville Island, and Point Pleasant Park. Each photograph has a caption indicating the location of the scene. Many of the photographs are inscribed with the name of the photographer on the front, including William Notman, Umlah, and J.M. Margeson. Some photographs taken by William Notman also have a number assigned by the photographer. At the end of the album, there are six contrived studio portraits of unidentified African Nova Scotian men and women. Using props and costumes they are not authentic representations of the past but examples of anti-Black racism. There is no information about the photographer of these portraits.
