This vintage ski photo was taken in the 1930s at Ste-Marguerite-du-Lac-Masson, Quebec, a region central to the development of Canadian skiing. Marked "Photo by Villa du Lac", the image shows a young skier dressed in period winter gear, captured against a backdrop of snow-covered evergreens.
Ste-Marguerite-Lac-Masson is historically important as the site of Canada’s first ski resort, founded by Émile Cochand in 1914. The area quickly became a hub for winter tourism in the Laurentians, and studios like Villa du Lac offered professional photography services to visiting skiers.
This vintage ski photo is framed in its original period frame with glass and aged paper backing. The skier’s attire, ski equipment, and pose capture the early spirit of North American alpine recreation. A striking piece of winter sport history, this vintage ski photo is perfect for collectors or chalet decor.
