The 19th-century illustration has been beautifully brought to life, showcasing the American vintage charm and maritime prowess of these Norse explorers. The image takes us back to a time of great exploration and discovery, as Leif Erikssen embarks on his journey across the vast Atlantic Ocean from Scandinavia. With Canada's rugged coastline serving as their backdrop, this group of intrepid Vikings set out to explore new lands and establish settlements. As we gaze at this print, we are transported to an era where row boats were the primary mode of transportation for long voyages. The intricate details highlight the craftsmanship that went into constructing these sailing ships during the Middle Ages.
