Hooker & Congregation - A Journey of Faith and Gratitude
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This wood engraving from the 19th century captures a significant moment in American history - the arrival of Thomas Hooker and his congregation in Connecticut in 1636. As they step foot on North American soil, this diverse group of settlers, including men, women, children, and clergy members, gather together to offer thanks for their safe journey. The image portrays a scene filled with emotion and devotion. A young girl can be seen kneeling in prayer alongside her family while others stand united in gratitude. The settlement's landscape serves as a backdrop to this powerful display of faith and unity. Thomas Hooker was not only an influential religious leader but also an immigrant who played a crucial role in establishing the colony of Connecticut. This print pays homage to his leadership and the determination of those who followed him across vast oceans seeking religious freedom. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the early struggles faced by these brave colonists as they embarked on building new lives amidst unfamiliar surroundings. It is a testament to their unwavering spirit that continues to shape our nation today. As part of The Granger Collection's extensive archives, this historic wood engraving offers us a glimpse into our past - reminding us to cherish our roots while celebrating the strength found within communities bound by shared beliefs and aspirations.
