Few colonial marriages carry as much weight as the one that joined Pocahontas, daughter of the Powhatan leader, to the English planter John Rolfe at Jamestown in 1614. Historians often read the union as a brief stretch of peace between the Powhatan people and the Virginia colonists, and it gave Rolfe a visible role in the colony's fragile relations. Nineteenth-century painters returned to the scene often, producing idealized versions that suited a national appetite for origin stories. Although it appears beside Plymouth subjects on this board, the event belongs to Virginia, a reminder that the wider English colonial world was far more varied than the Pilgrim story alone.
