EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from the 19th century depicts an important historical moment in early American colonial history. The print showcases Leonard Calvert, a prominent English colonial governor, engaging in a meeting with Native Americans of Maryland in 1634. The image captures the essence of this encounter, as Calvert and the Native Americans stand on a deck overlooking their settlement. Both parties are dressed in distinct fashion, highlighting the cultural differences between them. The Native Americans don feathered head dresses while Calvert and his fellow Englishmen wear hats. This meeting symbolizes the complex dynamics of colonialism during this time period. It represents an exchange between different cultures and signifies attempts at peaceful coexistence amidst British expansion into North America. As governor, Calvert played a crucial role in establishing Maryland as a Catholic colony within the British Empire. The wood engraving provides us with a glimpse into this significant chapter of history when European settlers encountered indigenous peoples on American soil. It serves as a reminder of both cooperation and conflict that characterized these interactions. Preserved by The Granger Collection, New York, this artwork invites viewers to reflect upon the complexities inherent to colonization and its impact on native populations.
