EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment when Robert Cavelier de La Salle, a renowned explorer, arrives at the mouth of the Mississippi River in April 1675. The image is taken from "Histoire generale de la marine" by Van Tenac, published in 1850. The unknown artist behind this 19th-century engraving beautifully depicts La Salle's arrival on American soil. With great attention to detail, the scene showcases the explorer's ship anchored near the riverbank as he and his crew disembark onto unfamiliar territory. La Salle's expedition was a significant event in American history as it marked one of the earliest European explorations of North America. His journey along the mighty Mississippi River paved the way for future settlers and traders to venture into uncharted lands. The artist skillfully portrays both the excitement and uncertainty that must have accompanied La Salle during this pivotal moment. The vastness of nature surrounding him serves as a reminder of how daunting yet awe-inspiring these early exploration missions were. This print not only pays tribute to an intrepid explorer but also serves as a testament to human curiosity and our relentless pursuit of knowledge. It stands as a visual representation of an important chapter in American history that continues to shape our understanding of this great nation today.
