EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early days of America's history, specifically to Jamestown, the first permanent British settlement in North America. The image depicts a scene from William A. Craft's renowned book "Pioneers in the Settlement of America" published in 1876. In this engraving by William Ludlow Sheppard, we witness an important aspect of Jamestown's development: wives for the settlers. As rowing boats glide along the James River in Virginia, women are being transported to join their husbands who had already established themselves in this new land. The significance of these women cannot be understated; they played a crucial role in supporting and stabilizing the fledgling colony. Their arrival brought hope and companionship to those pioneers who had endured countless hardships since Jamestown was founded on May 14th, 1607. Through this photograph, we glimpse into a pivotal moment that shaped American history. It serves as a reminder of the determination and resilience exhibited by these early settlers as they embarked on an arduous journey towards building a prosperous nation. Preserved within private collections today, this image allows us to reflect upon our roots and appreciate how far we have come since those pioneering days at Jamestown. Let it serve as inspiration for future generations as they continue forging their own paths towards progress and prosperity.
