EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of Jacques Cartier's book about his remarkable discoveries in Canada, printed in 1580. The image is a combination of a watercolor wash over a 19th-century printed halftone reproduction, adding depth and vibrancy to this vintage piece. The photograph takes us back to the 16th century, immersing us in the spirit of adventure and exploration that defined this era. It serves as a historic document, shedding light on the colonial expeditions that shaped Canadian history. Cartier's expedition was an extraordinary journey through uncharted territories, capturing the essence of discovery and curiosity. This artifact represents his significant role as one of the first European explorers to venture into what is now known as Quebec and Montreal. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a time when North America was still considered the New World. The St Lawrence River flows prominently across the page, symbolizing both Cartier's path and his search for the elusive Northwest Passage. This print offers us a glimpse into French Canada during its early stages as New France. It reminds us of how these brave colonists paved the way for future generations by establishing settlements along their travels. With its rich historical context and breathtaking depiction, this picture from North Wind Picture Archives captures our imagination while honoring Jacques Cartier's enduring legacy in Canadian history.
