EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Interior of a Cree Indian Tent, 1820" takes us back in time to the early 19th century in northern Canada. The image depicts indigenous people gathered around a warm fire inside their traditional Cree Indian tent. Created by Edward Francis Finden as part of John Franklin's Coppermine Expedition, this illustration showcases an intimate scene from the expedition's journey to the Polar Sea. In this snapshot of history, we see men and women tending to their daily activities. A woman cradles a baby on her back while another tends to a cauldron over the cooking fire. The aroma of smoked meat fills the air as it slowly cooks for sustenance. Men can be seen smoking pipes, enjoying moments of relaxation amidst their exploration efforts. The image offers insight into both cultural practices and survival techniques employed by these native communities during that era. It serves as a reminder of the rich heritage and resilience exhibited by indigenous peoples throughout history. Published in Admiral Sir Edward Evans' book "British Polar Explorers" in 1946, this print is not only an artistic representation but also holds historical significance. It allows us to delve into the past and appreciate the diverse cultures that have shaped our world today.
