Description
Newfoundland Labrador Canada Crosswords by Barbara Griffin. This digital artwork is a crossword type image of a selection of famous landmarks and places in the Canadian province of Newfoundland Labrador. John Cabot reached this island with its rich fishing grounds and claimed it for England when he arrived in his ship, The Matthew, in 1497. He landed at Bonavista.
Included in this artwork are the names of the past 10 premiers starting with Joseph R. Smallwood, the one to bring the Dominion of Newfoundland into confederation with Canada.
The size of all words varies throughout the group to add to the character of the piece. The words are intentionally horizontal, vertical, diagonal as well as crisscrossing and are part of other words.
The provincial motto is displayed across the top of the image.
