EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment between two influential figures - William Penn and King Charles II. In this wood engraving after Howard Pyle, we are transported back to the late 17th century at Whitehall. The image showcases William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania and a prominent colonist, standing on the left side while engaging in conversation with King Charles II. The attire of both men reflects the fashion trends of that era. King Charles II is seen wearing an exquisite royal gown befitting his status as a monarch. On the other hand, William Penn's clothing represents his American roots as well as his position as a respected figure in North America. This image not only highlights their meeting but also symbolizes the establishment of Pennsylvania colony in 1680 under Penn's leadership. It serves as a reminder of how these men played crucial roles in shaping history through their contributions to politics, colonization, and diplomacy. As we admire this remarkable wood engraving from The Granger Collection, it invites us to reflect upon the rich heritage and legacy left behind by individuals like William Penn and King Charles II who have greatly influenced our world today.
