EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 17th century, offering a glimpse into the historical beauty of Quebec. The image showcases a cartouche from a map depicting the majestic St. Lawrence River as it flows from Sorel. Created by Jean Baptiste Louis Franquelin, an esteemed French cartographer of that era, this engraving is now housed in the Service Historique de la Marine in Vincennes, France. The view presented here transports us to a time when Quebec was known as "Nouvelle France" with its charming streets and bustling city life. In the foreground, we see indigenous people engaging in daily activities such as cooking over an open fire using large cauldrons. This scene provides insight into their way of life and their interactions with European settlers. Beyond the native encampment lies Santo Domingo (now Haiti), located on Hispaniola Island in the West Indies. This inclusion reminds us of the vastness of French colonial influence during this period. With its rich historical significance and intricate details, this print offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in both Canadian and Caribbean history. It serves as a reminder of how cultures intertwine through exploration and colonization while also highlighting the natural beauty found along one of North America's most iconic rivers – St. Lawrence River.
