EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historical moment in North American history - the Plan of the Pequot Indian fort from John Underhill's Newes from America. The intricate engraving, created by an anonymous 17th-century English artist, offers a glimpse into the defences and layout of this Native American fortress during the Pequot War. The image transports us back to colonial times, reminding us of the complex interactions between Native Americans and European settlers in early America. It serves as a visual testament to the struggles for power and land that shaped this continent. The fort depicted here stands as a symbol of resilience and resistance against encroaching forces. Its strategic design reflects not only military tactics but also cultural traditions passed down through generations. This print invites us to contemplate how indigenous communities navigated their existence amidst changing landscapes and foreign influences. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded of the rich tapestry of American history that extends far beyond what is commonly taught in textbooks. It encourages us to delve deeper into our collective past, seeking understanding and empathy for those who came before us. In preserving this piece through photography, Bridgeman Images allows viewers worldwide to appreciate its significance without commercial intentions. Let it serve as a reminder that art has the power to educate, inspire, and connect people across time and cultures.
