EDITORS COMMENTS
In this color engraving, titled "CANADA: FUR TRADE. The Courier Du Bois and the Savage, 1892" we are transported back to the 19th century and immersed in a scene of cultural exchange and commerce. Created by Frederic Remington, a renowned artist of his time, this illustration beautifully captures a significant moment in Canadian history. The image showcases two men engaging in a friendly handshake against the backdrop of Canada's picturesque exterior. One can't help but be drawn to their distinct attire - the French voyageur or courier de bois on the left and an American Indian on the right. This visual representation symbolizes both cooperation and mutual respect between different cultures during this era. The canoe resting nearby serves as a reminder of transportation methods used during that period for fur trading expeditions across maritime regions. It also highlights how crucial these waterways were for economic growth and exploration. Remington masterfully brings to life scenes from Canada's wild west through intricate details such as clothing styles, facial expressions, and even subtle nuances like body language. Through his artistry, he invites us to reflect upon Westward expansion, indigenous lifestyles, and the significance of fur trade in shaping Canadian society. This remarkable print from Granger Art on Demand is not just an illustration; it is a window into our past – reminding us of our rich heritage while offering insights into early Canadian life.
