Summary[edit | edit source]

Description

In this family portrait, we see the blending of two cultures. The father wears a European suit adorned with a pocket watch. The mother, who might be Métis, holds their infant in a cradle board, traditionally used by First Nations peoples. The shawls, worn by several of the women and girls, reflect Métis culture. / Ce portrait de famille illustre la rencontre de deux cultures. Le père porte un complet européen agrémenté d’une montre de poche. La mère, vraisemblablement métisse, tient son enfant installé dans une planche porte-bébé, un accessoire traditionnel des Premières Nations. Son châle est un reflet de la culture métisse; plusieurs femmes et filles en portaient.
