EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Canadian history - the arrival of Jacques Cartier, a renowned French navigator and explorer. In 1534, Cartier took possession of the Bay of Gaspe and erected a cross on July 24th, marking his claim to the land. This engraving from the late 19th century, featured in Eugene Guenin's "La nouvelle France" beautifully depicts this historic event. In front of his crew and the indigenous people of America, Cartier stands tall as he raises the cross high above him. The scene is filled with awe and curiosity as both parties observe this symbolic act that would shape Canada's future. The vibrant colors used by Stefano Bianchetti bring life to this historical moment, emphasizing its significance. This image not only showcases Cartier's exploration but also highlights the cultural exchange between European explorers and Native American populations during this time period. It serves as a reminder of Canada's rich heritage and diverse roots. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in Canadian history unfold before our eyes. It invites us to reflect on how exploration has shaped our nation while honoring those who came before us.
