EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed William Penn, the visionary founder of Pennsylvania. Created by Whymper in 1880, this portrait captures Penn's dignified presence and profound impact on American history. As a member of the Society of Friends, commonly known as Quakers, Penn was driven by his strong religious beliefs to establish a colony based on principles of equality and tolerance. In 1666, he founded Pennsylvania and its vibrant capital city, Philadelphia - famously known as "the city of brotherly love". Penn's commitment to non-conformism is evident in this engraving. His distinctive wig symbolizes his status as an influential figure during the 17th and 18th centuries. The print beautifully portrays him as a man dedicated to his faith and determined to create a haven for those seeking religious freedom. With England as his country of origin, Penn embarked on a journey that would forever shape America's history. This image serves not only as a testament to his significant role in colonization but also highlights the importance of religion in shaping early American society. Whymper's skillful artistry brings out every detail in this monochrome masterpiece. It serves as both an homage to William Penn's enduring legacy and a reminder of the values upon which our great nation was built – unity, liberty, and respect for all individuals regardless of their background or beliefs.
