EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of Sir Walter Raleigh landing in Virginia, depicted in vibrant color lithography. The image showcases the arrival of the English explorer and writer on American soil, as he takes his first steps onto the shores of this new colony. Surrounding him are native people, known as Indians at that time, who observe with curiosity and intrigue. The scene represents a pivotal event in colonialism, symbolizing the beginning of European influence and settlement in America. It serves as a reminder of both the exploration and exploitation that characterized this era. The United States, still in its infancy during Raleigh's time, would later become a powerful nation within North America. Sir Walter Raleigh himself was not only an adventurer but also a renowned writer and poet. His literary contributions have left an indelible mark on English literature. This print offers us a glimpse into his multifaceted persona - from military endeavors to artistic pursuits. Displayed against a backdrop of lush landscapes and endless possibilities, this image invites viewers to reflect upon the complex history that shaped our world today. It is a testament to human ambition, cultural encounters, and the enduring spirit of exploration that continues to define us as Americans.
