Traduit de l’anglais par Google Traduction. * édition couleur *Paysages, rivières, ressources, géologie, peuples autochtones...tous ces sujets intéressaient le géologue-explorateur George M. Dawson (1849-1901) alors qu’il parcourait les prairies, les Rocheuses, la Colombie-Britannique, le Yukon et au-delà. Ces croquis proviennent de ses carnets personnels conservés aux Archives de l’Université McGill et de ses carnets de terrain conservés aux Archives nationales, datant de son travail à la Commission géologique du Canada, dont il fut directeur adjoint (à partir de 1883) puis directeur (de 1895 à 1901).Élevé dans la haute société montréalaise de l’époque victorienne (son père, Sir William, était principal de McGill), il reçut une excellente éducation et, outre son travail de scientifique, excellait en dessin, en aquarelle et en photographie.Landscapes, rivers, resources, geology, indigenous peoples...all these subjects were of interest to geologist-explorer George M. Dawson LL.D. CMG FRS FRSC (1849-1901) as he travelled the prairies, Rockies, Yukon, British Columbia and beyond. Sketches have been selected from his personal notebooks at the McGill University Archives, as well as from his field notebooks at the National Library and Archives of Canada in relation to his work for the Geological Survey of Canada of which he was Assistant Director (1883-) and Director (1895-1901). Raised in upper-class Victorian Montreal (his father Sir William was principal of McGill University) he was well educated and, beyond his career as a scientist, excelled at drawing, painting and photography.
