EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the "Map of New England, 1677". With its intricate woodcut details, this map is believed to be the first ever cut in the colony. The map was featured in William Hubbard's Narrative of the Troubles in New England, providing a visual representation of this tumultuous period. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, we are transported to a time when America was still forging its identity. The map highlights key locations along the eastern coast, including Massachusetts and Narragansett Bay. It offers insight into early colonial settlements and their interactions with indigenous tribes such as Wampanoag, Mohawk, and Nipmuck. One cannot overlook the significance of this map during a time marked by rebellion. Just prior to its creation, King Philip's War had ravaged these lands as Native American leader Metacomet (also known as King Philip) led an uprising against colonists. This conflict forever altered relationships between settlers and indigenous communities. The Map of New England serves not only as a historical artifact but also as a testament to exploration and discovery during America's formative years. It symbolizes unity among colonists who sought to establish themselves on foreign shores while navigating complex alliances with various tribes. Through this print from Granger Art on Demand, we can appreciate both the artistry behind woodcut maps and their invaluable role in documenting our shared heritage.
