EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print depicts Samuel Hearne embarking on his historic journey to the Coppermine in 1770. The image captures the spirit of adventure and exploration that defined Hearne's expedition into the uncharted wilderness of Canada.
Samuel Hearne, a British explorer and fur trader, set out on this perilous journey with a small group of men in search of a route to the Arctic Ocean. His determination and resilience in the face of harsh conditions and unknown dangers are evident in this detailed illustration by Charles William Jefferys.
As we gaze upon this scene from over two centuries ago, we are transported back in time to witness Hearne's courage and tenacity as he navigates through rugged terrain and treacherous waters. The stark black-and-white contrast adds a sense of drama to the composition, emphasizing the harsh beauty of the Canadian landscape.
This print serves as a powerful reminder of the pioneering spirit that drove explorers like Samuel Hearne to push beyond their limits in pursuit of discovery. It is a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance in the face of adversity, inspiring us to continue seeking new horizons and pushing boundaries in our own lives.
