The image, created in the 19th century, brings to life the spirit of adventure and discovery that characterized their expedition.
Marquette, a Jesuit priest, and Jolliet set out on this voyage with the goal of finding a water route to the Pacific Ocean. Their exploration took them through uncharted territory, encountering new cultures and landscapes along the way. As they navigated the waters of the Mississippi River, they relied on their skills as sailors and their faith as missionaries to guide them on their quest.
