EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration takes us back in time to the 1620s, offering a glimpse into the fort and settlement of New Amsterdam on Manhattan Island. The artist, Rev Samuel Manning, skillfully captures the essence of this historical moment through his pen and pencil drawings. The image showcases a bustling harbor scene with sailing ships dotting the waters. The imposing fort stands proudly against the backdrop of an expansive sky. Its red exterior contrasts beautifully with the surrounding landscape, evoking a sense of strength and resilience. Intriguingly, amidst this European settlement lies evidence of indigenous peoples coexisting with their new neighbors. This inclusion serves as a reminder that history is not one-sided but rather shaped by multiple cultures intertwining. Manning's attention to detail transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine what life was like during this pivotal period in American history. As we study each stroke of his pen or pencil, we can almost hear the sounds of bustling activity within these early streets. This antique print not only provides insight into our past but also serves as a testament to our nation's rich heritage. It reminds us that before it became New York City, Manhattan Island was home to diverse communities whose stories continue to shape our present-day society.
