Shooting the Rapids

Frances Anne Hopkins, Shooting the Rapids, 1879. Oil on canvas, 91.4 x 152.4 cm.

From Canoes: A Natural History in North America by Mark Neuzil and Norman Sims

This is one of Hopkins’ well-known later works; the rapids are at Lachine near Montreal and it appears that this may be a day trip because there are no packs, baggage or cargo in the canoe du maitre.
