Summary:
A party of Europeans trades with the Beothuk, a tribe of Native Americans on the coast of what is now Canada. Guy holds a knife, arrow, necklace and feather; one of the Native Americans holds a hat he has just received. In the background are the Europeans' galleons, and Indian canoes. This image has sometimes been used in early works to illustrate a meeting between Bartholomew Gosnold and Indians in Virginia.
