"Indian Natives Making Fire After Hunting" is a work 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 is known for his depictions of the Timucua, a Native American people, which are among the earliest visual records of the indigenous peoples of North America by a European artist. His works are significant as they provide a rare and valuable insight into the life and customs of the Timucua and other Native American tribes in the 16th century.

This particular artwork, "Indian Natives Making Fire After Hunting," captures a moment of daily life, illustrating the method used by the natives to create fire, presumably for cooking or warmth after a hunt. The scene likely portrays the Timucua people, as they were the tribe Le Moyne encountered and interacted with during his time in Florida. The work is executed with attention to detail and ethnographic accuracy, which was characteristic of Le Moyne's style. He was known for his careful observations and for recording the flora, fauna, and peoples of the New World with an eye of a naturalist and ethnographer.

Le Moyne's illustrations are not only important historical documents but also works of art that reflect the encounter between European explorers and the indigenous peoples of North America. "Indian Natives Making Fire After Hunting" is part of a larger body of work that helped shape European perceptions of the New World and its inhabitants. Le Moyne's legacy is preserved through his contributions to the visual history of early American colonization and the indigenous cultures that Europeans encountered.

The artwork is a testament to the complex interactions between European colonizers and Native Americans, reflecting themes of exploration, colonization, and the beginning of cultural exchanges that would profoundly affect both continents. As with many of Le Moyne's works, the original drawings did not survive; however, engravings based on his drawings were later published by Theodor de Bry and helped to disseminate Le Moyne's depictions throughout Europe. These engravings have become the primary means by which Le Moyne's work has been known to subsequent generations.
