IMAGE INFORMATION


It is questionable whether this is a Mi'kmaq camp; tribal attribution was based on the canoe shape. The painting itself closely resembles an engraving by William H. Bartlett published in 1840-1842. [W. H. Bartlett and N. H. Willis. Canadian Scenery Illustrated. London, J. S. Virtue, 1842: facing p. 36.]
