EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic broadside from 1696, printed by William Bradford of New York. The broadside announces the proclamation of Governor Benjamin Fletcher, issued on 12 September 1696, during the tumultuous period known as King William's War. This significant document forbids the transportation of corn from counties affected by French and Indian raids. The image itself is a testament to the early days of American history, capturing the essence of colonial life in New England. The broadside features intricate details such as a majestic coat of arms with symbols representing power and authority - a lion and unicorn flanking it. These symbols evoke notions of royal influence and strength. As we delve into this piece, we are transported back in time to an era when commerce was vital for survival in these colonies. The text on the broadside reveals not only Governor Fletcher's declaration but also hints at tensions between France and England during that period. This print serves as a reminder of our shared past and highlights how historical documents like this one played crucial roles in shaping early American society. It allows us to appreciate both the artistry involved in its creation and its significance as an important historical artifact from King William's War.
