EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a significant moment in American history. The Moravian missionary, David Zeisberger (1721-1808), is depicted passionately preaching to a group of Delaware Native Americans in the 18th century. The scene takes place around a campfire in a dense forest, creating an intimate and spiritual atmosphere. Zeisberger's dedication to spreading his faith among the Lenape people is evident as he captivates his audience with his words. Men, women, and children from the tribe gather attentively around him, their faces illuminated by the warm glow of the fire. It is clear that they are deeply engaged and open to hearing Zeisberger's message. The artist has skillfully captured this historic moment through mezzotint technique, bringing depth and texture to every detail. John Sartain's interpretation of Christian Schussele's painting beautifully conveys both the intensity of Zeisberger's sermon and the genuine interest shown by those listening. This artwork serves as a reminder of cultural exchange during colonial times when European settlers sought to convert Native Americans to Christianity. It also highlights Zeisberger’s commitment as he bridged language barriers between Czech, German-speaking missionaries like himself and indigenous tribes. Overall, this powerful image invites viewers into an important chapter in American history where religion intersected with different cultures on North American soil.
