EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "HUDSON BAY: TRAPPERS, 1892. Talking Musquash" we are transported back to the late 19th century in Canada. The image depicts a group of rugged fur trappers from the Hudson Bay Company engaged in conversation around a crackling fire. The engraving, based on an original drawing by Frederic Remington, beautifully captures the essence of these frontiersmen and their way of life. Seated comfortably by the hearth, these men exude a sense of camaraderie and shared experiences. Their weathered faces tell tales of countless hunting expeditions and encounters with nature's challenges. As they gather together after a long day's work, their animated conversation fills the air with stories that only those who have braved the wilderness can truly understand. One particular trapper catches our attention - he is affectionately referred to as "Talking Musquash". His deep knowledge about muskrats (or musquashes) makes him an invaluable source for his companions' trapping endeavors. With gestures and vivid descriptions, he captivates his fellow trappers while imparting wisdom gained through years spent tracking these elusive creatures. This evocative print not only showcases Remington's artistic talent but also serves as a window into a pivotal era in Canadian history when fur trading played a significant role in shaping both culture and commerce. It reminds us of the resilience and resourcefulness required to survive amidst untamed landscapes while highlighting the importance
