The official photographers were the Centennial Photographic Company, licensed to photographer Edward L. Wilson who engaged his friend Canadian photographer William Notman to join him in the venture. Notman served as President while Edward’s role was as Supervisor and Treasurer. Additionally, W. Irving Adams served as Vice President and J.A. Fraser as Art Superintendent. Scottish born photographer William Notman arrived in Montreal in 1856. He began as an amateur but rapidly moved into the ranks of the well established commercial world of his day. He opened many branches throughout Canada and the US. He was an active member of the fine arts photographic community as well and published many articles in the period publications. His accomplishments are far to numerous to note here. He died suddenly of pneumonia in 1891 with his son William continuing the business. Send questions.
