EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in the history of the Quaker faith and the early settlement of America. The photograph depicts Quaker emigrants bidding farewell to King Charles II and Queen Catherine of Braganza as they set sail from the Tower of London in 1673. The Quakers, known for their religious beliefs that emphasized equality, peace, and simplicity, had faced increasing persecution in England. In search of religious freedom, they decided to embark on a perilous journey across the Atlantic. The scene is set against the backdrop of the Thames River, with the majestic Tower of London looming in the background. The royal barge, adorned with the flags of England and Spain, glides gracefully in the water, carrying the monarchs and their courtiers. King Charles II, dressed in his regal attire, is seen extending a hand in farewell to the Quaker leaders, while Queen Catherine, dressed in a flowing gown and a headdress, watches the scene with a mix of curiosity and sadness. The Quaker emigrants, dressed in their simple and distinctive attire, are seen waving and bidding their final farewells to their loved ones and the shores of their homeland. The photograph captures the sense of hope and determination in their faces, as they embarked on a new journey to build a community based on their faith and values. This historical event marked the beginning of a significant Quaker presence in America, and paved the way for the establishment of the Quaker colonies in Pennsylvania and Delaware. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and resilience of the Quakers, who risked everything to follow their beliefs and build a new life in a new land.
