EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print captures a significant moment in American history - the meeting between Wampanoag leader Massasoit and the Plymouth colonists in the 1620s. The illustration, created in the 19th century, beautifully depicts this ceremony of peace and friendship between two distinct cultures. In this historic scene, Chief Massasoit is seen graciously extending his hand to Governor William Bradford, symbolizing their alliance and diplomacy. The colonists, dressed in traditional pilgrim attire, stand alongside their Native American friend with respect and admiration for his heritage. The image transports us back to a time when America was still being shaped by its early settlers. It serves as a reminder of the complex relationship between European settlers and Native Americans during this pivotal period. This visual representation showcases both sides coming together with mutual understanding and cooperation. The setting takes place at Plymouth Colony on Cape Cod, Massachusetts - an English colony that would later become one of the founding states of New England. As we gaze upon this vintage artwork, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within these lands. This illustration not only celebrates our shared past but also highlights the importance of preserving our native roots as we continue to build upon them today.
