EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history - William Penn's Treaty with the Indians. Created by J Rogers, this engraving transports us back to Pennsylvania in 1681, where the renowned William Penn (1644-1718) is depicted engaging in an agreement with the Lenape Indians. Penn, known for his unwavering support of democracy and religious freedom, stands tall amidst a gathering of Native Americans outside. The image beautifully portrays the concept of settlement and togetherness as both parties come together to establish harmony and mutual respect. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and timelessness to this seventeenth-century scene. It serves as a reminder of our country's origins and its commitment to inclusivity. J Rogers skillfully captures the essence of this historic event, showcasing not only Penn but also other men who played crucial roles in shaping America's early years. Benjamin West's artistic contribution further enhances the visual narrative, allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully into this pivotal moment. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from The Print Collector collection by John Tallis, we are reminded of how far our nation has come since that fateful treaty was signed. This photograph invites contemplation on democracy, unity among diverse cultures, and the importance of respecting indigenous peoples' rights - values that continue to shape America today.
