More about the book

The book explores the impact of John White's 1585 paintings of Carolina Algonquian Indians, which were later engraved by Theodor de Bry in 1590. These reproductions played a crucial role in shaping European perceptions of Native Americans, becoming the defining visual representation for readers in Europe and America. It delves into the intersection of art, exploration, and cultural representation during a pivotal time in history.
