Title: Penn's Treaty with the Indians
Artist: Benjamin West
Nationality of Artist: American
Year of Piece: 1771-1772
Period of Time in which piece was created: Around the time the Europeans, such as William Penn, explored and settled in North America.
This piece of art shows the importance of history. History is everything from the past, that we can never actually physically see because it has already happened. Through art, however, we can attempt to picture how things, such as Penn's treaty with the Indians, actually prevailed back then. Art is an excellent way to show things in the eyes of those back then.
