EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "DE BRY: NATIVE AMERICAN COOKING. The browylinge of their fishe over the flame (Powhatan Indians)" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Theodor de Bry after John White's original artwork from 1590, this line engraving is part of Thomas Harriot's renowned publication, New Found Land of Virginia. The image showcases a scene from the daily life of the Powhatan Indians, an Algonquian tribe residing in what is now known as Virginia. A group of men gather around a fire, skillfully grilling fish on wooden skewers over the open flames. As smoke rises and dances into the air, it creates an atmosphere that transports us to another time and place. The attention to detail in this engraving allows us to appreciate not only the culinary practices but also provides insight into the cultural traditions and resourcefulness of these Native American people. Their mastery in cooking seafood reflects their deep connection with nature and reliance on its bounties for sustenance. Through this historical snapshot, we are reminded of the rich heritage and diverse ways of life that existed long before our modern world took shape. It serves as a reminder to honor and respect indigenous cultures while appreciating their contributions to our collective human story.
