EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 17th century, specifically to Champlain's settlement on the Isle de Sainte Croix in Canada. The hand-colored woodcut reproduction of the original map beautifully showcases this historic moment in North American history. The image depicts a quaint town nestled on an island surrounded by the vast Atlantic Ocean. A ship sails gracefully towards the settlement, symbolizing exploration and navigation during that era. The presence of a majestic whale swimming nearby adds an element of awe and wonder to this maritime scene. The illustration captures the essence of colonial life with its charming buildings and bustling streets. It serves as a visual representation of Samuel de Champlain's efforts to establish French settlements in what would later become New France. As we gaze upon this vintage artwork, we are transported back to a time when brave settlers embarked on daring journeys across treacherous waters, seeking new lands and opportunities. This map not only documents historical events but also celebrates the spirit of discovery that shaped our world today. This print is more than just a piece of art; it is a window into our past, reminding us of the rich history embedded within every corner of North America.
