"Chief Satouriona and his Wife go for a Walk" is a historical artwork by Jacques le Moyne de Morgues, a French artist and member of the short-lived French colony of Fort Caroline in what is now Jacksonville, Florida. Le Moyne, known for his detailed illustrations of the indigenous peoples of North America, created this piece as part of his broader efforts to document the lives and customs of the Timucua, a Native American people encountered by the French Huguenot settlers in the 16th century.

The artwork is significant for its ethnographic value and as one of the earliest visual records of the Timucua people and their culture. Le Moyne's work provides a rare glimpse into the life and society of a Native American tribe prior to the extensive European colonization and the subsequent cultural and demographic changes that followed. The depiction of Chief Satouriona and his wife is particularly important as it portrays the attire, stature, and possibly the social practices of a leader and his spouse within the Timucua society.

Le Moyne's illustrations are considered some of the most accurate and informative images of the indigenous peoples of Florida from that period. His attention to detail and the naturalistic style of his work have made his drawings valuable resources for historians and anthropologists studying the early contact between European settlers and Native American tribes. "Chief Satouriona and his Wife go for a Walk" stands as a testament to the complex and often overlooked narratives of Native American history and the role of art in preserving these stories.

As a piece of art, it also reflects the broader context of European exploration and colonization, showcasing the ways in which artists accompanied expeditions to document and interpret the New World for European audiences. Jacques le Moyne de Morgues' legacy, therefore, extends beyond his artistic contributions, encompassing the broader historical and cultural interactions of the 16th century.
