EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Natives in Florida: a family swimming from one island to another" offers a glimpse into the lives of indigenous people in America during the 16th century. The image, a color engraving by Theodore de Bry, showcases a family embarking on an extraordinary journey across the water. In this scene, we witness a united and determined family as they swim together from one island to another. The parents guide their children through the calm waters while carrying baskets filled with their belongings. Despite being depicted without clothing, their nudity is not meant to be sensationalized but rather reflects their connection with nature and freedom. The presence of arrows suggests that these natives were skilled hunters or warriors who relied on their natural surroundings for survival. It also highlights the strength and resilience of these individuals as they navigate both land and water. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness an intimate moment within Native American culture. This print serves as a reminder of our shared history and encourages us to appreciate the diverse traditions that have shaped our nation's identity over centuries.
