EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "So the maiden went on, and little divined or imagined" we are transported back in time to witness a moment of courtship between two pilgrims. The image, captured by renowned artist Newell Convers Wyeth, beautifully depicts a scene from "The Courtship of Miles Standish" published in 1920. As we gaze upon the print, we are immediately drawn to the intricate details of the weaving costumes worn by these early American settlers. Their attire reflects both their devotion to their faith and their commitment to building a new life in an unfamiliar land. The central figures in this composition are John Alden and Priscilla, whose love story has become legendary thanks to Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's epic poem. We can almost feel the tension and anticipation as John musters up the courage to express his feelings for Priscilla. Wyeth's masterful use of light and shadow adds depth and emotion to this tender moment. The soft glow enveloping the couple creates an intimate atmosphere that invites us into their world. This print not only captures a pivotal moment in history but also serves as a reminder of our collective journey as Americans. It reminds us of the strength, resilience, and determination that brought our ancestors together amidst uncertainty. With its timeless beauty and historical significance, this artwork from Bridgeman Images is sure to captivate art enthusiasts who appreciate both fine craftsmanship and storytelling through visual imagery.
