This is a detail from a photographic portrait of
early Vancouver artist Maud Rees Sherman,
taken on Savary Island. Maud is riding
Prince, a horse with an interesting history, as related by
Jim Spilsbury (q.v.) in his autobiography Spilsbury's Coast.
The photograph was
presumably taken by Maud's father Ruiter
Stinson Sherman, a member of the Savary Island Park
Association that developed Savary Island in the early 1900s. The photograph was provided courtesy of the Savary Island Heritage Society. |
