Edward Hicks, the American Quaker minister and
artist, painted a series of works entitled The
Peaceable Kingdoms between 1820 and 1849. This series
of paintings is based on the Old Testament passage
Isaiah 11:6. This book explores the intersection of
Quakerism and Romanticism in 19th century America
which is represented in Hicks'' Peaceable Kingdoms.
Romantic themes in the Peaceable Kingdom are the
concept of childhood, the presence of Nature, and the
ideal of the noble savage. Romanticism in 19th
century America was impacted by Christian Romanticism
and the development of special educational, social,
and spiritual roles for children. The presence of
Nature is evident through the use of animals and
landscapes. A vignette of William Penn and the
Indians represents Quakerism and the ideal of the
noble savage. Hicks portrayed his Quaker theology and
the influence of Romanticism through his Peaceable
Kingdom paintings.
