John Wesley Preaching to the Indians
1900-1950 / Engraving / John Wesley / Paper / Print / World Parish
Engraving on paper
c.1900
John Wesley went to Savannah in Georgia (north America) in 1736 to serve as minister to the colonial settlement. The posting was not a success. This fanciful print dating to around 1900 shows him preaching to indigenous Americans.
The print is factually not quite correct. It is dated '1735', and we have no evidence that John Wesley ever preached to or converted native Americans.
