1/150 La Grande Hermine – Historical Ship (Carrack) Starter Kit (Heller)

La Grande Hermine was one of the ships of the French navigator Jacques Cartier, who made several voyages to what is now Canada in the first half of the 16th century. It was with this ship that Cartier made his first expedition in 1534, exploring the coast of North America and laying the foundations for the French claim to these territories.
The carrack was a typical ocean-going sailing ship of its time, capable of long overseas voyages. La Grande Hermine thus became a symbol of French overseas exploration and the early era of European expansion into the New World.
