EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Native American Family, c. 1585-87" by John White offers a glimpse into the lives of an indigenous family in North America during the late 16th century. The image showcases a harmonious scene where parenthood and sustenance intertwine seamlessly. In this snapshot, we witness the parents' unwavering dedication to their child's upbringing as they engage in traditional activities essential for survival. The father, armed with a longbow and arrows, symbolizes protection and provision for his loved ones. Meanwhile, the mother is depicted nurturing her child while tending to crops like potatoes and corn - vital sources of sustenance for their tribe. The painting not only highlights the importance of family bonds but also sheds light on Native Americans' deep connection with nature and agriculture. It serves as a reminder that these communities were self-sufficient long before European colonization disrupted their way of life. As we admire this remarkable piece from Peter Newark American Pictures collection, we are transported back in time to witness the resilience and resourcefulness of Native American tribes in North Carolina. This artwork stands as a testament to their rich cultural heritage and reminds us of our shared history on this land now known as America.
