| Commentary: | In June, 1911, Schoonover ventured to the Hudson Bay area in northern Canada again, this time to revisit the tribes and places he had seen previously in the winter of 1903-04. On this summer trip, he gathered new information, photographed people and places, and sketched for the article entitled “The Fur Harvesters” that he wrote and illustrated for Harper’s Magazine, October 1912. The boat seen in this illustration was the typical mode of transportation on rivers and lakes. Photographs taken by the artist show some of these boats with red sails.
