EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Western Canada, a vast and awe-inspiring region that encompasses the Five Great Lakes. Taken from the renowned Atlas de Toutes les Parties Connues du Globe Terrestre by Guillaume Raynal, this coloured engraving offers a glimpse into the natural beauty and geographical significance of this area. Published in 1780 by J L Pellet in Geneva, Switzerland, this historical piece transports us back to a time when exploration and cartography were at their peak. The map highlights Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario – collectively known as the Five Great Lakes – which form an integral part of North America's landscape. These majestic bodies of water have long been vital for transportation and trade routes between Canada and the United States. Additionally, we are treated to a depiction of Niagara Falls on this print. This iconic landmark is not only visually stunning but also holds great cultural importance for both Canadians and Americans alike. As we delve into this remarkable image captured by Charles Marie Rigobert Bonne (1727-95), it becomes evident why it belongs in private collections around the world. Its intricate details bring history to life while reminding us of nature's grandeur found within Western Canada's lakeshores and beyond.
