EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Champlain's Tadoussac settlement in 1613, providing a glimpse into the rich history of New France. The hand-colored woodcut, dating back to the 17th century, beautifully depicts this vintage village that played a significant role in Canada's heritage. The image transports us to a time when Tadoussac was a bustling frontier town on the banks of the Saguenay and St. Lawrence Rivers. Its strategic location made it an important trading post for French settlers and indigenous peoples alike. The fort stands proudly at the center of the illustration, symbolizing both protection and expansion. As we explore this colonial chart, we can almost feel ourselves stepping back in time to witness Samuel de Champlain's vision come to life. This outpost served as a crucial link between Europe and North America during its early years as part of New France. The artistry behind this piece is truly remarkable; every brushstroke captures not only the physical layout but also conveys the spirit of adventure that characterized these pioneering times. It serves as a testament to our shared history and reminds us of how far we have come since those days. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it is an invitation to delve into Quebec's past and discover how French Canada began shaping what would eventually become modern-day Canada.
