A Glimpse into the Early History of New Orleans: A View of the Settlement at New Orleans in 1720 This print, depicting the early settlement at New Orleans in 1720, offers a unique window into the history of one of America's most intriguing and culturally rich cities. The image, captured by an unknown artist, provides a glimpse into the past, when New Orleans was still in its infancy as a European settlement. The Mississippi River, a vital waterway that would later become the lifeblood of the city, is shown in the background, its calm waters reflecting the sky above. The settlement itself is nestled on the riverbank, with a few small buildings clustered together, surrounded by lush greenery. A group of people can be seen in the foreground, engaged in various activities, including fishing and tending to livestock. The settlement was established in 1718 by the French explorer Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville, who named it after the Duke of Orléans, the regent of France at the time. The city's strategic location at the mouth of the Mississippi River made it an important trading hub, attracting settlers from various backgrounds, including French, African, and Native American. This early view of New Orleans provides a fascinating insight into the city's history, showcasing its natural beauty and the simple pleasures of daily life in the early 18th century. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to shape New Orleans to this day.
