EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the arrival of Dutch colonists on Staten Island in New York Harbor during the mid-17th century. The line engraving, created by an American artist in the 19th century, beautifully depicts this significant event in American history. In this scene, we witness a diverse group of men, women, and children disembarking from their ship onto the shores of Staten Island. The Dutch colonists are dressed in traditional attire, showcasing their cultural heritage as they begin to establish their new lives in this unfamiliar land. The image exudes a sense of excitement and anticipation as families gather together with their luggage, ready to embark on a new chapter. Amidst the hustle and bustle, a young girl stands out with her curious gaze at the bustling activity around her. The landscape surrounding them is lush and picturesque; it serves as a reminder that these brave individuals were venturing into uncharted territory filled with untapped potential. This engraving offers us a glimpse into what life was like for early settlers in North America during colonial times. As we admire this historical artwork from The Granger Collection's archives, let us reflect upon the courage and determination exhibited by those who paved the way for future generations on Staten Island and beyond.
