EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring scene of loggers unloading cut trunks onto a frosty river in Ontario. The image, taken by Leonard de Selva, showcases the fascinating process of raft descent in Canada during the late 19th century. As depicted in this engraving after a drawing by Taylor, these massive logs will soon be carried downstream by the current to their final destination where they will undergo transformation. The sheer magnitude of the timber is evident as it dominates the frozen landscape, creating an intriguing contrast between nature's raw power and human intervention. The loggers can be seen meticulously arranging each trunk on the icy surface, preparing them for their journey downriver. It is during the degel - when winter thaws into spring - that these logs will begin their transformative voyage. Published in "Le tour du monde" in 1875 and edited by Edouard Charton, this historical photograph offers a glimpse into a vital industry that shaped Ontario's landscape at that time. The attention to detail captured by de Selva transports us back to an era where manual labor and natural forces intertwined harmoniously. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Fine Art Finder's Selva Collection, we are reminded of humanity's ability to harness nature's resources while simultaneously appreciating its beauty.
