Queen Victoria Park sits on the Canadian side of the Niagara Gorge, where the view across the river and the falls is the subject of this 1911 picture. The park takes its name from Queen Victoria, and by the early twentieth century it had become a popular place for visitors to walk the cliff edge and take in the cataract from above. Pictures like this one show how the falls were presented to tourists of the period, with the river and the spray set against the wooded gorge. The "NY" in the title points to the New York State side of the border, so the picture gives a sense of the two banks as seen from across the water.
