EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor print by John White, titled "Their sitting at meate" offers a glimpse into the lives of Carolina Algonquian Native Americans in the late 16th century. The scene depicts a Native American man and woman engaged in the act of eating, showcasing their unique cultural practices and food habits. The painting transports us to a time when the New World was still largely unexplored by Europeans. It provides valuable insight into the daily life of indigenous communities that thrived in what is now known as South Eastern United States. In this artwork, we witness an intimate moment as these two individuals enjoy their meal together. Their posture suggests comfort and familiarity with one another, highlighting the importance of communal dining within their culture. The attention to detail in White's watercolor allows us to observe not only the figures but also their surroundings. We can see elements such as traditional clothing, utensils used for eating, and even some native plants or ingredients on display nearby. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the rich diversity that existed long before colonization took place. It serves as a reminder to appreciate and respect indigenous cultures while acknowledging their significant contributions to our shared history.
