EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the historic moment of the "Landing of William Penn" in 1682. The image portrays William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania, stepping foot on the American soil for the first time. Penn, dressed in a flowing coat and hat, is warmly greeted by a large and diverse group of people. Among them are Native American leaders, extending their hands in a gesture of peace and welcome. The women in the crowd are dressed in traditional colonial attire, while the men wear a mix of European and Native American clothing. The calm waters of the Delaware River are in the background, with the sky above filled with a beautiful, sunny day. The print, created around 1932, captures the spirit of the moment when the seeds of a new community were sown, based on the principles of religious freedom and peaceful coexistence between Europeans and Native Americans. The image is a testament to the rich history of Pennsylvania and the foundational values that continue to shape the state and the nation.
