EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century line engraving titled "Salzburg Emigrants, 1732" transports us back to a significant moment in history. The image depicts a group of Lutheran emigrants from Salzburg, Austria, embarking on a journey to the North American colonies after being forcibly expelled by the Catholic archbishop. The scene is filled with emotion and anticipation as these brave individuals set off on foot, carrying their meager belongings in early luggage. Their determined expressions reveal both the hardships they have endured and their hope for a better future across the Atlantic. The caravan of immigrants stretches into the distance, symbolizing not only this particular group but also countless others who sought refuge from persecution during that time. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of the struggles faced by those who left behind everything they knew for religious freedom and opportunity in distant lands. As we study this piece further, we can appreciate its historical significance. It captures an important chapter in German-American immigration history and sheds light on the formation of diverse communities within what would become known as the Thirteen Colonies. Through this artwork, we are transported back to an era when courage and resilience were necessary companions for those seeking new beginnings far away from home.
