"Pocahontas 1595-1617 1616" is an engraving by the Dutch artist Simon van de Passe, created in 1616 during Pocahontas's visit to England. This portrait is one of the most iconic and enduring images of Pocahontas, a Native American woman notable for her association with the colonial settlement at Jamestown, Virginia, and her marriage to Englishman John Rolfe. The engraving is significant as it is one of the few contemporary depictions of Pocahontas and serves as an important historical artifact reflecting the intersection of Native American and European cultures during the early 17th century.

In the portrait, Pocahontas is depicted in Elizabethan attire, wearing a high-collared dress and an English-style hat, which reflects her assimilation into English society and her role as a symbol of peace and diplomacy between the English settlers and the Powhatan tribe. The inscription on the engraving, "Matoaka als Rebecka," refers to her private and Christian names, respectively, while "daughter of the mighty Prince Powhatan" acknowledges her heritage.

Simon van de Passe was part of a family of notable engravers and his work on this portrait is characterized by its detailed and delicate line work, which was typical of the period's printmaking techniques. The engraving not only provides a visual representation of Pocahontas but also offers insight into the ways in which indigenous peoples were perceived and presented within European society.

The "Pocahontas 1595-1617 1616" engraving is held in various collections, including the British Museum, and remains a subject of study for historians and art scholars interested in colonial American history, the representation of Native Americans in art, and the life of Pocahontas herself.
