EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Hiawatha: Hunting" takes us back to the 19th century and immerses us in the world of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's epic poem, The Song of Hiawatha. Created by Felix O. C. Darley, a renowned American illustrator of his time, this print beautifully captures the essence of Native American culture and their deep connection with nature. In this scene, we witness Hiawatha himself, a revered chief and leader among his people. Dressed in traditional buckskin attire and armed with a tomahawk and club, he stands poised on a rocky outcrop overlooking a majestic waterfall. With an intense gaze fixed upon his target below, Hiawatha embodies both strength and grace as he prepares to embark on a hunting expedition. Surrounded by lush forest scenery teeming with life, including beavers swimming in the river nearby and birds soaring above him, Hiawatha demonstrates his skill as an accomplished hunter. His presence commands respect as he navigates through the wilderness with precision and reverence for the land that sustains him. This engraving not only serves as an illustration for Longfellow's poetic masterpiece but also offers us a glimpse into America's rich history during the 16th century. It reminds us of our interconnectedness with nature and honors indigenous cultures that have long held profound wisdom about living in harmony with our surroundings. As we admire this artwork from The Granger Collection's archives, let it transport us to another
