The Landing of Cadillac
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating illustration from "The City of the Strait" by Edmund Kirke, published in Harpers Magazine in 1886. This lithograph, created by Howard Pyle, showcases the historical moment when Antoine Laumet de La Mothe Cadillac arrived at Detroit River as a French soldier, colonist, and explorer. In this scene, we witness the arrival of Cadillac's expedition on canoes along the tranquil waters of the river. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this significant event with meticulous attention to detail. The figures are depicted wearing period clothing and exude an air of anticipation mixed with determination. The composition beautifully portrays both natural elements and human activity. The lush greenery surrounding the riverbank adds depth to the image while highlighting Michigan's pristine landscape during that era. As canoes glide through calm waters towards landfall, one can almost feel their excitement and sense their eagerness for new beginnings. This artwork belongs to the Brandywine School style popularized by Howard Pyle himself—a movement known for its emphasis on narrative storytelling through art. Through his masterful technique and use of light and shadow, Pyle brings life to this historical moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon "The Landing of Cadillac" we are transported back to a pivotal chapter in American history—an exploration that would shape not only Detroit but also lay down foundations for future generations. This print serves as a testament to our collective past and reminds us how far we have come since those
