EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the historic moment when Samuel De Champlain embarked on his journey up the St Lawrence river in 1608. The print showcases the explorer's canoes, gracefully gliding through the water, guided by friendly Native American Indians. The scene is filled with a sense of adventure and discovery as Champlain navigates through the picturesque landscape of Quebec. The artist, Archibald Bertram Webb, beautifully depicts the tranquility of this significant event in history. Champlain's voyage marked a pivotal point in European exploration and colonization of North America. His interactions with Native American tribes were crucial for establishing trade relationships and alliances that would shape future settlements. In this lithograph, we witness not only Champlain's determination but also his respect for indigenous cultures. The collaboration between him and the native people exemplifies their mutual understanding and cooperation. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for "The New Book of Knowledge" edited by Sir John Hammerton in 1948. It serves as a visual reminder of our shared history and highlights the importance of cultural exchange during early colonial times. As we gaze upon this print today, it reminds us to appreciate both the beauty of nature and our interconnectedness with different cultures throughout history.
