The illustration takes us on a journey through time, showcasing the early days of New France and its rich colonial heritage. In this vintage depiction, we see a bustling village nestled along the banks of the majestic St. Lawrence River. The town is alive with activity as people go about their daily lives against a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty. A whale gracefully breaches in the distance, reminding us of the abundant marine life that once thrived in these waters. The artwork pays homage to both native and French cultures, highlighting their coexistence during this pivotal period in history. It serves as a testament to Samuel de Champlain's vision for establishing a prosperous colony and fostering peaceful relations with Amerindian tribes.
