EDITORS COMMENTS
The Pilgrim Fathers, c1869, (c1902) captures a significant moment in history with its depiction of the arrival of the Pilgrim Fathers on American soil. This print is based on George Henry Boughton's famous painting 'The Landing of the Pilgrim Fathers, 1620, ' which is housed in the Museums Sheffield collection. In this image, we see a group of men dressed in traditional pilgrim attire standing on Plymouth Rock. Their faces are filled with determination and hope as they embark on their journey to establish a new colony in North America. The unknown creator of this print has beautifully captured their emotions and expressions. The scene exudes religious fervor and devotion as one man holds a missal while another clutches a prayer book. These objects symbolize their commitment to Christianity and highlight the importance of religion for these early settlers. This photograph serves as a reminder of our shared heritage and the courage it took for these pioneers to leave everything behind in search of freedom and opportunity. It also pays homage to George Henry Boughton's original masterpiece, which has become an iconic representation of this pivotal event in British-American history. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the bravery and resilience exhibited by these pilgrims. It serves as a testament to human spirit and reminds us that through faith, determination, and unity, great things can be achieved.
