EDITORS COMMENTS
This color engraving, created in 1891 by Frederic Remington and now available as a print from Granger Art on Demand, transports us back to the bustling fur trade era of 17th century Montreal. The image showcases an extraordinary moment of cultural exchange between Native Americans and voyageurs against the backdrop of this vibrant Canadian city. In this scene, we witness a harmonious meeting between two worlds. A group of Native American men clad in traditional attire extend their hands in greeting towards French voyageurs who have arrived with their goods for barter. This handshake symbolizes not only the beginning of a business transaction but also the forging of friendships across cultures. The enchanting atmosphere is further enhanced by Remington's masterful use of colors, which breathe life into every detail - from the vivid garments worn by both parties to the rustic buildings that line the streets. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a time when Montreal was at its trading peak and served as a hub for commerce between European settlers and indigenous peoples. This engraving offers us a glimpse into New France's rich history while celebrating the resilience and interconnectedness that characterized early Canadian society. It serves as a reminder that even amidst economic transactions, human connections can be formed through mutual respect and understanding – values that continue to shape our world today.
