EDITORS COMMENTS
The Pilgrim Fathers, the Founders of Franklins New England, stand in awe as they witness the receding Mayflower, their vessel of hope and dreams. This illustration from 'Lives of Great Men Told by Great Men' transports us back to the 17th century when these courageous pioneers embarked on a treacherous journey across the vast Atlantic Ocean. Kneeling in prayer on the sandy beach of the American coastline, these brave souls express gratitude for their safe arrival on this new world's mainland. Their faces reflect a mix of anticipation, determination, and reverence as they set foot on unfamiliar shores that would soon become home. The artist Alfred Walter Bayes masterfully captures both the vulnerability and resilience of these early settlers. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment while emphasizing its significance in shaping America's future. This image serves as a poignant reminder of our collective heritage and pays homage to those who risked everything for freedom and opportunity. It symbolizes not only an extraordinary chapter in history but also represents countless stories of bravery and sacrifice that have shaped nations throughout time. As we gaze upon this print, let us remember with gratitude those who came before us – The Pilgrim Fathers – whose unwavering spirit laid the foundation for Franklin's New England.
