Title:
Native American Wedding Ceremony, 16th Century
Caption:
Late 16th-century engraving by Theodor de Bry, after a watercolor by Jacques le Moyne, titled The King Receives the Queen. The engraving shows a the man and woman, most likely the chief and his bride, seated on a wooden platform. Women dance in a circle and men look on. Although de Bry never set foot in the New World himself, he made many copies of watercolors by the French artist le Moyne depicting the Timucua tribe of Florida. They are some of the earliest, if not necessarily the most accurate, surviving records of the Native Americans of the period.
