EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of Debarquement de Jean Nicolet, also known as Nicollet de Belleborne, on the shore of Lake Michigan in 1634. As a French coureur de bois directly involved in the fur trade with the Native Americans in Wisconsin, Nicolet holds a significant place in history as the first European to reach this region.
The coloured engraving from the 19th century brings to life this pivotal encounter between two vastly different civilizations. The image portrays Nicolet stepping onto the unfamiliar shores of Lake Michigan, symbolizing the beginning of European colonization and contact with indigenous peoples in North America.
In this scene, we witness not only a physical crossing of boundaries but also an encounter between cultures and societies that would forever alter the course of history. The meeting between Nicolet and the Native Americans represents a complex interplay of exploration, trade, and colonialism that shaped future interactions on this continent.
Through this photo print, we are reminded of both the curiosity and ambition that drove early explorers like Jean Nicolet to venture into unknown territories, as well as the profound impact these encounters had on shaping our world today.
