EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning engraving captures the beauty and serenity of The Magdalen Isles in the Gulf of St. Lawrence in 1778. Created by Joseph Frederick Wallet DesBarres, this intricate piece showcases the detailed cartography of the area, with north at 350 degrees and variation shown at 17 degrees 45' W.
The engraving, measuring 73x55 cm, is a testament to DesBarres' skill as an artist and cartographer. The use of bar scales in statute and nautical miles adds to the precision of the map, while tidal symbols provide valuable information for sailors navigating these waters.
The black-and-white aesthetic lends a timeless quality to this piece, transporting viewers back to the early days of exploration in North America. The islands depicted are a reminder of the vastness and diversity of Canada's landscape, with each isle holding its own unique charm.
As you gaze upon this print, you can almost feel the cool sea breeze on your face and hear the gentle lapping of waves against rocky shores. It serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry and scientific accuracy that went into creating such maps during the 18th century.
