EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Attack of the Seminoles on the Block House, pub. 1836" takes us back to a significant moment in American history - the Seminole War of 1835. This hand-coloured engraving by an anonymous artist from the 19th century captures the intensity and brutality of warfare between Native Americans and settlers. In this scene, we witness a fierce battle unfolding at a block house in Florida. The image portrays chaos and desperation as Seminole warriors launch their assault on the garrisoned settlement. The air is thick with smoke, gunfire echoes through the landscape, and cries of pain fill the air. Amidst this turmoil, casualties lie scattered across the ground - both dead and wounded soldiers from both sides bear testimony to the violence that has unfolded. It serves as a reminder of how war can ravage lives indiscriminately. This historical artwork not only depicts military conflict but also offers glimpses into medical practices during that era. With injured soldiers visible in various states of distress, it highlights both their suffering and attempts at providing medical aid amidst such dire circumstances. As we observe this hand-coloured engraving from our private collection today, it serves as a poignant reminder of our nation's past struggles while honoring those who fought bravely during these turbulent times.
