Series of photographs: daily life of the Inuit of Nouveau-Québec (now called Nord-du-Québec) (BAnQ)

Series of photographs (1959-1967) taken by Armor Landry in the Nord-du-Québec region during his career as a photojournalist. These photographs are living witnesses of Inuit culture and find their basis in an ethnographic perspective. The Inuit are presented there as part of their daily life, as a family and as a guide to their territory. There are also aerial views of the surrounding flora and photographs of a former Hudson’s Bay Company trading post converted into supply stores. These photos were used for the illustration of newspaper articles and the preparation of reports.
