 Re: Pierre Cloutier wood carver from Quebec Adrienne, I am not familiar with Mr. Cloutier but I would watch Ebay for carving done by him. It seems that carving was a typical pastime in Quebec; with several French Canadians. I probably have six carvings from that area and period; but none by your artist.  |

| Re: Pierre Cloutier wood carver from Quebec See attatched via Windsor Carving Museum ''Going Home for Christmas'': by Pierre Cloutier, carver from Quebec 1800 (?) The Windsor Wood Carving Museum Going Home for Christmas: Before the construction of trading posts like Pontchartrain, a number of French traders known as coureurs de bois (runners of wood) canoed to far away native villages to get furs. They found themselves in constant danger from the rapids and the lengthy land portages. This particular relief retells the legend of the voyageurs who sold their soul to the Devil in order to get back to their sweethearts in time for Christmas day. Carved from pine by Pierre Cloutier in 1974. Courtesy of Kurt Deeg. Lawrence, Julie The French Connection |
