Vintage Lantern Slide: Expertly Hand Tinted photo on glass "Landing In Virginia" 1584 Dimensions 3.25" x 4"
This slide depicts the very first attempt by the British to establish a colony in what they referred to as "The New World." This landing led to the establishment of a colony that eventually became known as "The Lost Colony of 1587" This disappearance of an entire group of British settlers in the year 1587 remains one of the greatest mysteries of early American history. The settlers' interactions with the indigenous tribes, specifically the Croatoan tribe, were a key factor in the settlers ill fated struggle for survival.
The Croatoan people, depicted on this slide, lived slightly to the south of Roanoke Island, along the coast of what is now the Outer Banks of North Carolina. It was reported that the colonists who disappeared left the word "CROATOAN" carved on a post, suggesting they might have sought refuge with the Croatan tribe.
About the Lantern Slide (a photo on glass)
The use of lantern slides for photographic displays had a profound impact on the dissemination of knowledge, entertainment, and art. It was an important bridge between the pre-modern era of visual culture and the rise of photography, film, and modern multimedia presentations. By facilitating the public sharing of images on a larger scale, lantern slides democratized access to visual information and laid the groundwork for the visual media we use today.
This item is a guaranteed authentic photo as shown from the original time period.
