EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic "Map of Virginia, discovered and described by Captain John Smith" from 1606. Engraved by William Hole and published in 1612, this intricate map provides a fascinating glimpse into the early exploration of America. Captain John Smith, an English cartographer and adventurer, embarked on a journey to Virginia with the first settlers in 1606. The map depicts his remarkable encounters with the native tribes of the region, including a depiction of Powhatan, Chief of Algonquian tribes who captured Smith in 1607. However, it was Pocahontas, Powhatan's daughter, who famously saved Smith from execution. This pivotal moment is symbolized in the top left corner of the map - a testament to their extraordinary encounter. The Map of Virginia not only offers geographical details but also serves as an invaluable historical document showcasing early colonial life at Jamestown and its surroundings. It beautifully captures both land and sea features such as Chesapeake Bay and Susquehanna River. As we delve into this print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are transported back to a time when exploration was filled with wonderment and danger. It reminds us that history is shaped by individuals like Captain John Smith who ventured into unknown territories to expand our understanding of the world around us.
