EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Reception of Creek Indians by King George II at Kensington Palace, 1734" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image depicts an extraordinary meeting between Native American Creek Indians and the British monarch, King George II. Set within the opulent walls of Kensington Palace in London, this gathering showcases the cultural exchange that occurred during the 18th century. The royal court is adorned with Georgian elegance as it welcomes these indigenous visitors from North America. The composition beautifully captures the curiosity and intrigue on both sides. King George II stands tall, representing Great Britain's power and influence over its colonies across the Atlantic. Meanwhile, members of the Creek tribe stand before him with dignity and pride, showcasing their unique attire and customs. This historic encounter symbolizes not only a diplomatic meeting but also serves as a reminder of early interactions between Europeans and Native Americans. It highlights how different cultures came together amidst vast geographical distances to forge connections that would shape future relations between nations. Through this lithograph print by Henry Alexander Ogden after Edwards Ellis' illustration for "Ellis's History of the United States" we are transported back in time to witness this extraordinary event firsthand.
