EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage hand-colored woodcut print captures a pivotal moment in Canadian history - Jacques Cartier standing atop the summit of Mont Real, now known as Montreal, in 1535. The illustration depicts Cartier's exploration and claim of land for France during the 16th century. As a French colonist, he embarked on this historic expedition to discover new territories and establish colonies in the New World. The artwork beautifully portrays the lush landscape surrounding the St. Lawrence River, which played a crucial role in Cartier's journey. This river served as a gateway for future explorations and became an important trade route for French Canada. The image not only showcases Cartier's significant contribution to North American history but also highlights the rich cultural heritage that shaped Quebec and its people. It serves as a reminder of how early European explorers paved the way for future settlements and laid claim to vast territories across North America. As we admire this piece of art, let us reflect on our shared past and appreciate those who ventured into unknown lands centuries ago, forever altering the course of history.
