Traditional Wooden Snowshoe Design - Historical Winter Footwear #3768645 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white line drawing depicts a classic North American wooden snowshoe, featuring a bentwood frame, diamond-patterned rawhide or babiche lacing, and robust leather straps for foot retention. The elongated oval shape and reinforced toe/heel sections suggest use in deep snow and rugged terrain, typical of Indigenous and early settler winter travel. Decorative stitching and structural reinforcements highlight both utility and cultural artistry.
