EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Jesuits Welcomed by the Recollets in 1625" transports us back to a significant moment in history. The colour lithograph, created by Charles William Jefferys and now part of a private collection, beautifully captures the arrival of French missionaries known as Jesuits in North America. In this scene, we witness the meeting between the Jesuits and their fellow religious order, the Recollets. These brave men were sent from France with a noble mission - to convert the indigenous people living on Canadian soil. Dressed in their distinctive habits, these dedicated monks embarked on an arduous journey across the vast Atlantic Ocean. As they step foot onto Canadian land, we see them being warmly greeted by their counterparts. The image exudes a sense of camaraderie and mutual respect between these two groups of friars who shared a common purpose - spreading Christianity throughout New France. "The Jesuits Welcomed by the Recollets in 1625" serves as a powerful reminder of early missionary efforts in North America and sheds light on an important chapter in Canada's history. It symbolizes not only religious devotion but also cultural exchange between Europeans and Indigenous peoples during this time period. Through this remarkable artwork, we are transported to an era where faith and exploration intertwined amidst uncharted territories. This print is truly a testament to human resilience and determination as well as an homage to those who paved the way for future generations on both sides of the Atlantic.
