Description

Rose Blanche in French means white rose, but the community's name is actually a corruption of roche blanche, white rock, for the beautiful white quartz outcroppings seen in the area. Fishing and mercantile interests were important industries at Rose Blanche in 1871, when P.H. Sorsoliel and other residents petitioned the Newfoundland House of Assembly for a lighthouse. The following year, Rose Blanche was one of six sites selected to receive a lighthouse. I decided to tone this image and I recommend a framed print.
