EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the 19th century depicts Samuel de Champlain, a renowned French explorer in North America during the 17th century. Champlain's distinctive appearance is captured with great detail, showcasing his goatee, beard, and mustache that were characteristic of men during that era. Dressed in a collared shirt and donning an elegant collar, he exudes an air of sophistication while also embodying the ruggedness associated with explorers. Champlain's significant contributions to history as both an explorer and colonist are well-documented. Hailing from France, he played a crucial role in establishing New France (present-day Canada) as a permanent settlement for the French empire. His expeditions led him to explore vast territories throughout North America, including areas such as Quebec City and Lake Champlain which bear his name today. The wood engraving not only captures Champlain's physical features but also hints at his adventurous spirit and determination. It serves as a reminder of the bravery exhibited by early European explorers who ventured into unknown lands in search of new opportunities and discoveries. As part of The Granger Collection's extensive art collection on demand, this print offers viewers a glimpse into one man's remarkable journey through time - an exploration that forever shaped the course of history in North America.
