EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print takes us back to the 17th century, capturing a pivotal moment in American history - the founding of Providence, Rhode Island. The image depicts Roger Williams, a pioneer and visionary leader, as he lands at a pristine spring where he would go on to build the city of Providence in 1636. The vintage illustration transports us to an era characterized by wild landscapes and traditional values. It serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's rich heritage and the courageous individuals who braved the untamed wilderness to establish colonies in North America. In this scene, we witness not only the birth of a settlement but also an act of defiance against religious persecution. Williams was banished from Massachusetts Bay Colony due to his unorthodox beliefs and found refuge in what would become Rhode Island. This print symbolizes his journey as both heretic and refugee, highlighting themes of punishment and exile that were prevalent during this time. The artwork beautifully captures the spirit of colonial America with its intricate details and vibrant colors. It invites us to delve into history, exploring how these early settlers shaped our nation's identity through their unwavering determination. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, let us reflect on the struggles faced by those who came before us and appreciate their contributions towards building a more tolerant society.
