Légende

Exterior of a Greenlander's Hut, 1856. ' In the winter they live in huts built of stones and turf, lined inside with old skins...Amongst themselves the Greenlanders have no chiefs or laws; unrestrained freedom exists. Wars and quarrels are unknown amongst them; and even the children, as soon as they can walk, have perfect liberty to act as they like, and what is more remarkable this general liberty is not accompanied by license. More peaceable people cannot anywhere be found'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
