EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Americae Tertia Pars, Deliberating before an Expedition against the Enemies" takes us back to the 16th century and offers a glimpse into the native American world. Created by Theodore de Bry in 1563, this colour engraving showcases a group of indigenous men deep in discussion and dispute, deliberating their next move before embarking on an expedition against their enemies. Intricately detailed, the scene depicts a lush landscape with foliage and a crackling fire at its center. The men are portrayed naked, adorned only with feathered headdresses that proudly display their plumage. Their quivers filled with arrows and bows close by suggest they are prepared for battle. As we observe this historical moment frozen in time, we can almost feel the tension in the air as these brave warriors strategize together. Their hammocks hang nearby, symbolizing both rest and readiness for action. This engraving not only captures a specific event but also provides valuable insight into Native American culture during this period of exploration and colonization. It serves as a reminder of the diverse societies that inhabited America long before European settlers arrived. With its rich colors and intricate details, "Americae Tertia Pars" transports us to another era while inviting contemplation about our shared history on this vast continent.
