EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "VERNER: PORTAGE" showcases a remarkable scene from 1875, capturing the rich history and cultural heritage of Native Americans on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. In this exquisite artwork by Frederick Arthur Verner, we witness a group of indigenous people portaging their canoes to Spider Lake with great skill and determination. The graphite and watercolor medium used in this piece beautifully brings to life the lush landscape surrounding them. The towering fir trees create an enchanting forest backdrop as the men navigate through the hilly terrain towards their destination. The late afternoon sunlight casts a warm glow upon the riverside, adding depth and vibrancy to every stroke. This artwork not only highlights the artistry of Verner but also serves as a window into an important aspect of Pacific Northwest history. It pays homage to the First Nation communities who relied on these traditional modes of transportation for travel across vast river systems and lakeshores. As we gaze at this mesmerizing image, we are transported back in time, witnessing firsthand how these resilient individuals embraced nature's challenges while maintaining their deep connection with their ancestral lands. This print is part of The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection - a treasure trove that celebrates both American and Canadian artistry while preserving our shared heritage for generations to come.
