EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Samuel de Champlain, a renowned French explorer and colonizer who played a significant role in the history of Canada. Born around 1567 and passing away in 1635, Champlain's legacy as the colonizer of Canada is immortalized through this engraving from 1830. The artwork is based on a serious portrait by Moncornet, capturing the essence of Champlain's character and determination. Champlain's exploration efforts were instrumental in establishing French presence in North America during the early 17th century. His expeditions led to the founding of Quebec City in 1608, which became an important hub for fur trade and European settlement. Through his leadership and vision, he laid the foundation for New France, shaping its culture and identity. In this enchanting engraving, we see Champlain depicted with great detail and authenticity. His resolute gaze reflects his unwavering commitment to exploring new lands and expanding French influence across the continent. This image serves as a powerful reminder of his contributions to Canadian history. As we admire this remarkable piece of art by Giancarlo Costa, let us remember Samuel de Champlain as one of Canada's most influential figures – an explorer whose courage paved the way for future generations to thrive on this vast landmass known today as North America.
