To the Great North-West with the Marquis of Lorne, V
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a momentous journey through the vast and untamed wilderness of Canada's great north-west. This engraving, created by Sydney Prior Hall in 1881, showcases an expedition led by the Marquis of Lorne. The image depicts a scene filled with adventure and exploration. The floor is adorned with intricate topography maps, symbolizing the meticulous planning that went into this ambitious endeavor. In the background, railways converge at a junction, representing progress and connectivity in this remote region. As we delve deeper into the picture, our eyes are drawn to mesmerizing sights: mirages shimmering on distant horizons, red rivers meandering through untouched landscapes, and a radiant sun halo illuminating Lake Superior. These natural wonders serve as reminders of both beauty and challenges encountered along their path. Accompanied by esteemed gentlemen such as Mr. Norquay – Premier of Manitoba – and native Assiniboine chiefs, the Marquis of Lorne embarks on an unforgettable voyage. Along their route from Eagle Lake to Winnipeg via Old Fort Garry and Prince Arthur's Landing (now Thunder Bay), they encounter friendly Native Americans performing an enchanting Indian war dance. This engraving not only celebrates Canadian history but also pays homage to those who paved the way for future generations in this vast land known as North America's western hemisphere. It serves as a testament to human resilience against nature's forces while highlighting Canada's rich cultural heritage
