Société d’Histoire In Memoriam

Here’s a link to a Canadian society that reenacts the 1750s, the Société d’Histoire In Memoriam. The costumes are very accurate and beautiful and there are tons of wonderful photos on the site!

Wonderful costume! Reminds me of Marie Antoinette’s dress in Vigee-Lebrun’s “a la rose” painting

Au revoir!

I discovered your site via another blog–isn’t the 18th century wonderful? All of the photos and the artworks you post are gorgeous, and I enjoy your writing very much. Did you create that delightful drawing of you and the dogs? A pleasure to meet you. Josephine

Thanks for sharing the link! Quebec city is very historic and the location where some of the earliest settlers arrived in Canada. I went to eat at that restaurant - L’Ancien Canadien and I highly recommend it, the food is very authentic. I had wild meat pie and soupe aux pois de grandmère. They also had pheasant on their menu.

Thank you! Do you mean the painting in the header? It’s not me, and they’re not dogs, but I did make it :) You can see my art website here: http://www.johannaost.com/main
