EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the year 1651, offering a glimpse into an Iroquois village. The engraving, created by Nicolaes Visscher, showcases the intricate details of this Native American settlement located in North America's vast and diverse region. The image depicts a fenced community bustling with activity and life. The fencing surrounding the village serves as both protection and demarcation of their territory. It is fascinating to observe the various types of dwellings that make up this tribal landscape - from huts to more complex structures - each reflecting the unique architectural style of the Iroquois Confederacy. A birds-eye view allows us to appreciate how these houses are arranged within the village, forming a harmonious layout that fosters community spirit and cooperation among its inhabitants. As we explore every corner of this print, we can't help but be captivated by the attention given to even the smallest details – from meticulously rendered trees to birds soaring above. This image not only provides insight into historical Native American housing practices but also invites contemplation about their way of life during this era. It reminds us of our responsibility to preserve and honor indigenous cultures' rich heritage while acknowledging their contributions in shaping America's past and present.
