Return to Camp

The art of Paul Calle fills a void in our visual history. Calle masterfully portrays what is best about the human spirit, paying tribute to those who blazed the trails, especially that largely forgotten and unsung hero, the trapper of the 1830s who traveled North America's uncharted territory. "After spending the early morning hours setting his traps in the icy ponds and streams near active beaver dams and lodges, the trapper returned to camp. There he rekindled the fire and awaited the return of his companions. That night, gathered around a warm fire, they would have tales to tell of the day's adventures." - Paul Calle
