EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic British treaty with members of the Six Nations, also known as the Iroquois Confederation, in 1769. The image features a watercolor wash on a woodcut reproduction of the original treaty document. With its vintage allure and autograph signature, this piece transports us back to an important moment in American history. The photograph captures the essence of colonial diplomacy during the 18th century, highlighting New York's alliance with Native American tribes such as the Mohawk, Seneca, Onondaga, Tuscarora, Cayuga, and Oneida. This significant artifact symbolizes unity between British forces and indigenous peoples in North America. Notable figures like William Johnson and Joseph Brant (Thayendanegea) played crucial roles in negotiating this alliance that shaped early American history. The Iroquois League or Confederacy was instrumental in maintaining peace among various tribes while navigating relationships with European colonizers. As we delve into this mesmerizing image from North Wind Picture Archives, we are reminded of how treaties like these laid foundations for future diplomatic endeavors within East Coast colonies such as Pennsylvania. It serves as a reminder of our shared past and honors Amerindian cultures that have long inhabited these lands
