The autumn issue of QuébecOiseaux features bird sketches from The Codex Canadensis alongside pictures of the actual birds the drawings represent.
The Codex Canadensis and the Writings of Louis Nicolas edited by François-Marc Gagnon shows how the wildlife and native inhabitants of the new world were understood and documented by a seventeenth-century European. Part art, part science, part anthropology, this ambitious project presents an early Canadian perspective on natural history that is as much artistic and fantastical as it is encyclopedic.
