Titled as a broad survey rather than a single event, this picture belongs to the Pilgrim imagery on this board, so its subject is best understood through the Plymouth story. In 1620 the Mayflower carried a group of English separatists across the Atlantic, and they settled at Plymouth in what is now Massachusetts that December. Illustrated histories of this kind, popular in the nineteenth century, often retold that arrival with romantic detail, so viewers should read such scenes as later interpretations rather than eyewitness records.
