EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Voyageurs, 1898" takes us back in time to the rugged and untamed landscapes of colonial America. Painted by Charles Marion Russell, this oil on board masterpiece measures 47x62.2 cm and is housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts in Minnesota, USA. The monochrome depiction showcases a group of intrepid travellers known as voyageurs, who were instrumental in exploring and colonizing the new world during the 16th and 17th centuries. In this scene, we witness their arrival on the wild western coast after a treacherous journey across rocky shores. Accompanied by native Americans acting as scouts and guides, these European settlers are seen disembarking from their boats onto the unfamiliar coastline. A priest stands among them, symbolizing faith and spirituality amidst their quest for new beginnings. Russell's painting beautifully captures both the romanticism and historical significance of this era. The artist's attention to detail highlights not only the determination of these pioneers but also their reliance on teamwork as they navigate uncharted territories. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to an age when exploration was met with uncertainty yet fueled by hope. It serves as a reminder of our collective history while honoring those who paved the way for future generations in shaping what would become modern-day America.
