"Attack on an Indian Village with Flaming Arrows" is a 16th-century watercolor painting by the French artist Jacques le Moyne de Morgues, who is known for his work as an illustrator and cartographer during his time in the New World. The painting is part of a series that depicts scenes from the French Huguenot expedition to Florida under the command of Jean Ribault and René Goulaine de Laudonnière between 1562 and 1565, which was one of the earliest European attempts to colonize the southeastern part of North America.

The artwork illustrates a dramatic moment during a conflict between indigenous tribes in the region, capturing the intensity and violence of the encounter. In the scene, the village is under siege, with attackers launching flaming arrows to set the structures ablaze. The painting serves as a historical document, providing insight into the interactions between European explorers and the Native American populations they encountered, as well as the conflicts that existed among different indigenous groups.

Jacques le Moyne de Morgues' work is significant for its ethnographic and artistic value, offering a rare visual account of the flora, fauna, and peoples of the New World in the 16th century. "Attack on an Indian Village with Flaming Arrows" is particularly notable for its detailed representation of the indigenous people's way of life, their dwellings, and the warfare tactics employed during that period. The painting is a testament to le Moyne's skills as an observer and artist, and it contributes to the historical understanding of the early colonial encounters in North America.

The painting is held in high regard for its historical importance and is studied by historians and art historians alike for its depiction of early colonial history and its representation of Native American culture. As with many works of this era, the painting must be viewed within the context of its time, recognizing the perspectives and biases of European colonialism. Nevertheless, it remains a valuable artifact for the study of the period and the visual culture of exploration and colonization.
