pdf version Early Photographers Of First Peoples In British Columbia The adventurers and explorers who, during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, visited British Columbia needed a means to convey to their contemporaries at home what they had experienced during their voyages of discovery. Journals, ship's logs and diaries supplemented the oral accounts of their journeys. Accomplished artists recorded the flora, fauna, landscapes and peoples in sketches and watercolours prior to the advent of photography in the mid-nineteenth century. Although many of these prints and paintings were executed with great care and attention, they do not contain the detail that is afforded in a photograph. The introduction of the Daguerreotype in 1839 and somewhat easier to use "wet-collodion" method in 1851 eventually resulted in the first photographs being taken in British Columbia in the 1850s. Many of the early ethnographic photographs were created on the tours of inspection by colonial and dominion officials. Photographic artists were commissioned to document the peoples, cultures and villages visited by the officials. These collections form the basis of the early archival holdings at the Royal British Columbia Museum. Photographs taken by Frederick Dally during a circumnavigation of Vancouver Island in 1866 by Governor Arthur Edward Kennedy are among the first photographic images of B.C. The tours of Dr I.W. Powell, British Columbia's first Commissioner for Indian Affairs, were photographed by Richard Maynard (1873 and 1874), Oregon Hastings (1879) and Edward Dossetter (1881).

oCanada.ca Home Canadian Shopping oCanada.ca Store Forums ... Privacy Statement Beautiful British Columbia British Columbia Alberta Saskatchewan Manitoba ... Newfoundland Geography British Columbia is a stunning place that encapsulates most people's image of Canada. The mountains and vast forested interior of the coast seem infinite. Ancient forests, ranching country, supernatural secluded lakes, and Pacific Ocean views are the essential ingredients of a visit to British Columbia. It is the farthest west province in Canada and one of North America's most mountainous regions. B.C. is bordered by Alberta , the Yukon Territory and several U.S. states, including Alaska. Climate British Columbia contains both Canada's wettest and its driest climates, and more species of flora and fauna than the rest of the country put together. The province's climate equals its topography for variety. For example, the mild coastal region receives abundant precipitation - from 130 to 380 cm of rain a year - while the interior has a continental climate. Other parts of the province are almost desert-like, with very hot summers followed by very cold winters. Culture British Columbia's beauty is a huge draw: 40,000 persons settle there each year, and its population is now over 3.8 million - 12 percent of Canada's total. More than half of this population live in the Greater Victoria and Vancouver areas. Vancouver is home to more than 1.8 million people. It is the third-largest Canadian city, and a major Pacific port.
