"Indians round a Fire" is a watercolor painting by John White, an English artist, cartographer, and colonist who is renowned for his detailed depictions of the landscapes, peoples, and flora and fauna of the early American colonies. Created circa 1585-1586, this artwork is part of a series of White's works that provide a valuable visual record of the indigenous Algonquian peoples and their way of life in what is now the coastal region of North Carolina.

The painting depicts a group of Native American individuals gathered around a fire at night, engaged in what appears to be a social or ceremonial gathering. The figures are illuminated by the fire's glow, which casts light on their features and attire, providing insight into their cultural practices and dress. The scene is set against a dark background, emphasizing the communal activity and the fire's central role in their gathering.

John White's works, including "Indians round a Fire," are significant for their ethnographic importance and historical value. They are some of the earliest visual records by a European of the native peoples of North America prior to the widespread impact of European colonization. White's perspective as both an artist and a colonist offers a unique, albeit Eurocentric, viewpoint on the lives of the indigenous populations during the late 16th century.

"Indians round a Fire" is held in high esteem not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the understanding of early interactions between European explorers and Native American communities. The painting is part of a collection of White's works that are housed in the British Museum, London, and it continues to be a subject of study for historians, anthropologists, and art historians interested in the period of early American colonial history.
