EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1903, presents a captivating scene of two Native American guides standing steadfastly at the bow and stern of a canoe, while two women, dressed in turn-of-the-century attire, sit comfortably in the center. The tranquil waters of Sault Sainte Marie in Michigan's Upper Peninsula reflect the clear blue sky above, as the group prepares for a day of canoeing on this historic waterway. The Sault Sainte Marie region, a significant geographical feature in the United States, is home to the St. Marys River, which connects Lake Superior to Lake Huron. The area holds deep cultural significance for the indigenous peoples of the region, who have relied on the waterways for transportation and sustenance for generations. Frances Benjamin Johnston, an influential figure in American photography during the early 20th century, documented the country's diverse heritage through her extensive body of work. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history and traditions of the indigenous peoples of Michigan and the importance of the waterways in shaping the region's past and present.
