EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Iroquois Village, a significant historical landmark in North America. Dating back to 1556, this woodcut from Giovanni Battista Ramusio's Delle Navigazioni e Viaggi is the first printed plan of a settlement on the continent. The image depicts the fortified village of Hochelaga, situated near Monte Real (present-day Montreal, Canada). The Iroquois Native American tribe established this remarkable village as their stronghold during that era. With its strategic location and impressive fortifications, it served as a testament to their ingenuity and resourcefulness. This woodcut offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of these indigenous people. As we delve into this piece of history, we are transported back in time to witness the thriving community that once inhabited these lands. The intricate details captured by Giambattista Ramusio highlight not only the physical layout of the village but also provide insights into their way of life. From observing this print, one can imagine bustling streets filled with tribal members going about their daily activities - trading goods, tending crops, or engaging in communal gatherings. It serves as a reminder of how diverse and vibrant North America was long before European colonization. This print stands as an invaluable artifact that celebrates both Native American culture and early exploration efforts in discovering new territories across our vast continent.
