I was reading a Globe and Mail article on the inappropriatness of using (mainly indigenous)
imagery and costumes in a racist manner on Halloween. Then I remembered this engraved portrait of Pocahontas in Jacobean English formal (court) clothing. And I also remembered how astonished I was the first time I saw the portrait.
Quick quiz: So what was she calling herself at this point (1616)?
Enjoy!
