EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an illustration of the renowned French explorer, Samuel de Champlain. Born around 1567 and passing away in 1635, Champlain's legacy as a key figure in Canada's history is beautifully captured in this image from Volume IV of Narrative and Critical History of America, dating back to 1886. The engraving, later enhanced with vibrant colors by an English School artist from the 19th century, exudes a sense of authority and determination that befits Champlain's character. As one gazes upon his portrait, it becomes evident why he is hailed as the founder of Quebec. Champlain's unwavering spirit for exploration led him on numerous expeditions throughout North America. His contributions to mapping out new territories were instrumental in establishing France's presence in Canada during the early colonial period. In this particular depiction, we see Champlain portrayed as a distinguished male figure who commands respect through his confident gaze and regal attire. The attention to detail highlights not only his physical appearance but also hints at the depth of knowledge and experience he possessed. This print serves as a reminder of Champlain's significant role in shaping Canadian history while honoring his enduring legacy as an intrepid explorer. It allows us to connect with our past and appreciate those individuals whose courage paved the way for future generations.
