Lonsdale Ferry 1917

‘Lonsdale Ferry 1917″  is a hand pulled woodcut print
by Rick Herdman.

This print was featured in a blog post by North Shore Heritage.   The writer did an excellent job in researching the background of this print.

“The impressive woodcut print shown above is the work of local artist Rick Herdman. The image shows the Lonsdale Ferry landing in 1917. It comes from a photograph taken by the artist’s great uncle and early Vancouver photographer, William John Moore, 1887-1963. The photo was discovered by the artist among a collection of Moore’s photographs in the basement of the North Vancouver home of the artist’s grandmother.”
