The Pocahontas Print

On April 5, 2014, Historic Jamestowne held a recreation of Pocahontas’ wedding to John Rolfe on their 400th wedding anniversary in the exact spot of the original ceremony. Portraying Pocahontas, Wendy Taylor of the Pamunkey tribe wore an elaborately embroidered jacket inspired by a 17th century original. The embroidered design includes flora and fauna native to Virginia, and took 70 women over 1200 hours to complete.
