EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "HABITATION OF QUEBEC, 1608" takes us back in time to the early days of Quebec's settlement. The drawing, skillfully created by Charles W. Jefferys after an engraving in the works of Samuel de Champlain, transports us to a momentous period in history. In this scene, we witness the bustling activity along the riverside as people go about their daily lives. A group of American Indians gracefully paddle their canoes on the calm waters while French settlers attend to various tasks within the fort's stockade. The architectural details are meticulously depicted; from the chimney smoke rising into the sky to the sturdy fences and dock that line the bluff. The image captures both a sense of exploration and coexistence between different cultures during this maritime era. It serves as a visual testament to Quebec's rich heritage and its significance as one of North America's oldest European settlements. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we become visitors ourselves, transported through time to witness firsthand what life was like in New France over four centuries ago. This print is not only a beautiful piece for any art enthusiast but also an educational window into our shared past.
