Mother And Child Native American Indian Snowshoe Snowshoes Travels
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Iroquois people in New France during the 17th century. Taken from Samuel de Champlain's Voyages de sieur Champlain, this engraving by an anonymous French artist offers a glimpse into the lives of these indigenous individuals. The image showcases both male and female members of the tribe, adorned with traditional attire and armed with bows and shields. Intriguingly, a mother is depicted cradling her child, symbolizing the importance of family within their culture. The presence of snowshoes suggests that this snapshot was taken during winter when these tools were essential for traversing snowy landscapes. The photograph provides valuable insight into Canadian history as it sheds light on the encounters between European explorers like Champlain and Native American tribes. It serves as a reminder of our shared past and highlights the rich cultural heritage that exists within Canada. Displayed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this artwork continues to captivate viewers even centuries after its creation. Its timeless nature allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic beauty.
