The Baptism of Pocahontas at Jamestown, Virginia, 1613, (1840). A 19th-century representation of Pocahontas (c1595-1617) being converted to Christianity before her marriage to Englishman John Rolfe. Pocahontas, a Native American princess, was baptised Rebecca by Anglican minister Alexander Whiteaker. She and the priest are depicted in white, symbolising the 'purity' of Christianity.
