Abstract
The author focuses on the many photographs of children published in Canadian Pictorial, an illustrated English-language magazine produced monthly in Montreal between 1906 and 1916 by the Pictorial Publishing Company. In its ten-year run, the magazine strongly advocated "the educational value of pictures" and exalted the advantages of photography for depicting a wide variety of subjects and themes of "peculiar and vital interest to Canadians."
