EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in American history - William Penn's Treaty with the Indians. In 1661, when he founded the Province of Pennsylvania, Penn sought to establish peaceful relations between Native Americans and settlers. This image, published by Currier & Ives in vibrant color lithography, beautifully depicts this significant event. At its heart, this artwork symbolizes unity and harmony. The central figures portray William Penn himself alongside Native American leaders engaged in deep conversation. Their body language exudes respect and understanding as they exchange ideas and forge an agreement that would shape the future of Pennsylvania. The inclusion of breastfeeding in this scene adds another layer of symbolism. It represents nurturing and sustenance for both cultures involved - a powerful visual representation of cooperation and shared prosperity. William Penn was not only a settler but also a pacifist Quaker who believed in non-violence as a means to resolve conflicts. His vision for Pennsylvania was one where all people could coexist peacefully regardless of their backgrounds or beliefs. Displayed at Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, CT, USA, this historic piece serves as a reminder of our nation's complex past while highlighting the importance of diplomacy and mutual respect among diverse communities.
