"The National Archives of Canada is proud of its long tradition of recognizing and collecting this crucial and complex documentation of our past. This catalogue, and the exhibition that it accompanies, is an opportunity to invite Canadians to reflect on a selection of some of the most treasured records acquired over the last twenty years and now held by the Documentary Art and Photography Division. It is an affirmation of the power and value of the picture in communicating our history to our children. The selections from the twentieth century all emphasize the continuing presence of this power, particularly in communicating our values through visual symbols"--Foreword, page iii.
