Born in Ireland, Limerick in 1799, George Russell Dartnell was a British army surgeon stationed in Canada from 1835 to 1844. Dartnell, an accomplished and popular surgeon, sketched more than 150 scenes of Canada's dense forests, clear lakes and rough-edged beauty during his nine-year posting - all of which form an important part of Canada's pre-photographic visual history.
