EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing SAMOSET (c1590-1653), the Native American chief of Monhegan Isle. The wood engraving, created in the 19th century, beautifully depicts Samoset's first visit to Plymouth Colony on 16 March 1621. In this powerful image, we witness the meeting between two vastly different cultures - the indigenous people and the Pilgrim settlers. As Samoset stands tall and proud as a leader among his people, he extends a warm greeting to the newcomers with open arms. The engraving showcases not only Samoset's strength and bravery but also highlights his role as an ambassador for his tribe. His visit to Plymouth Colony marked an important milestone in establishing peaceful relations between Native Americans and European settlers. The scene is filled with curiosity and anticipation as both parties engage in this historic encounter. The presence of men, women, warriors, settlers, colonists from various backgrounds adds depth to this depiction of daily life during that time period. Through this remarkable artwork by The Granger Collection from Granger Art on Demand, we are transported back to a pivotal moment where cultures collided and laid the foundation for future interactions between Native Americans and Europeans. It serves as a reminder of our shared history while honoring the resilience and leadership demonstrated by figures like Samoset.
