Summary[edit]

Description

PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

Champlain records that this residence was built of fair sawn timber by good workmen. Lescarbot refers to the building as made of well-finished carpentry. The ground floor and interior are oak, and the staircase is birch with hand-moulded features. The handmade fireplace mantel shelf and over-mantel reflect designs of the period and display the coat of arms of Sieur de Mons (left), the French flour-de-lis (centre) and Sieur de Poutrincourt (right). The tanned and painted moose hide on the wall is similar to those worn as ceremonial cloaks by the Mi'kmaq. The French admired Mi'kmaw artwork and would use these hides as decorative tapestries.
