EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Motoaka (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an exquisite engraving by an English School artist. Housed in a private collection, this artwork offers a glimpse into the life of Motoaka, also known as Pocahontas, a prominent figure in American history. The image is derived from A Biographical History of England by J Granger and was published in William Baynes' book in 1824. It beautifully captures the essence of Motoaka, a Virginia native and proud member of the indigenous Native American community. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to another time and place - the United States of America during its early years. Motoaka's presence reminds us of her significant role as a bridge between two cultures: her own Native American heritage and that of the European settlers who arrived on American soil. Her story symbolizes resilience, strength, and unity amidst cultural differences. Motoaka's legacy continues to inspire generations across North America and beyond. Through this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded not only of Motoaka's individual journey but also of the rich tapestry that makes up America - a land shaped by diverse peoples coming together to create one nation under many flags.
