“The First Thanksgiving” is a historical painting created by American artist Jean Louis Gerome Ferris in 1915. It depicts the Pilgrims and Native Americans sharing a meal together during the first Thanksgiving celebration in Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1621. In reality, this representation of the iconic event reflected the idealized version of the story that entered the collective memory of the United States in the last quarter of the 19th century.
