Français : Voyageurs passant devant une chute en canot, de Frances Anne Hopkins, 1869.
Les voyageurs canadiens, empruntant aux Autochtones leur savoir et leurs techniques, ont pénétré à l’intérieur du continent, et ont souvent entrepris de longs voyages en navigation fluviale, à la recherche de fourrure. Scène représentant un gros canot à marchandises de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson passant devant une chute, probablement sur la rivière des Français. Les passagers à bord du canot sont peut-être l'artiste et son mari, Edward Hopkins, secrétaire du gouverneur de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson. |
