EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Mrs Rowlandson and the Indians, 1676 (c1880)", takes us back to a significant moment in American history. The image depicts Mary Rowlandson, the courageous wife of a Puritan minister, during her harrowing ordeal as a hostage of Narragansett Indians in 1676. Living on the frontier village of Lancaster, Massachusetts, Mrs Rowlandson's life was forever changed when her community came under attack during King Philip's War. Alongside her three children, she was taken captive by the Native Americans and forced to journey through treacherous wilderness for nearly three months. Tragically, she lost her youngest child along the way. Eventually released after a ransom was raised by Boston women, Mrs Rowlandson documented her captivity in an account titled "A Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs Mary Rowlandson". Her story sheds light on the hardships faced by both colonists and Native Americans during this turbulent period. The monochrome engraving captures the wintry landscape that served as their backdrop throughout their arduous journey. It serves as a poignant reminder of not only Mrs Rowlandson's personal struggles but also reflects upon larger themes such as conflict between cultures and survival amidst adversity. This historical photograph offers viewers a glimpse into America's past while honoring Mary Rowlandson's resilience in enduring unimaginable challenges.
