EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the colonial seal of the Carolinas, a symbol that represents the rich history and heritage of this region. The seal was adopted by the Proprietors of Carolina in 1663, following King Charles II's grant of the colony. Crafted as a wood engraving in 1878, it beautifully captures the essence of this significant moment in time. The circular design features various elements that reflect both English and American influences. At its center stands an imposing figure wearing a royal helmet and armor, representing King Charles II's authority over the colony. Surrounding him are men and women adorned with traditional head dresses, symbolizing Native American tribes who inhabited these lands long before European settlers arrived. Intricate details such as feathers, cornucopia, and even a deer further emphasize the diverse natural resources found within North Carolina and South Carolina. These symbols serve as reminders of how intertwined nature was with daily life during those early colonial times. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to an era when colonization was still unfolding on American soil. It serves as a reminder not only of our shared past but also highlights the complex relationships between different cultures that have shaped our present-day society.
