Created by the French School in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of migration and the pursuit of a fresh start. In this dramatic image, families from Germany are seen preparing to embark on their journey to North America. Laden with luggage and belongings, these poor emigrants eagerly await their voyage. The expressions on their faces reflect a mix of anticipation and despair as they leave behind their homeland in search of better opportunities. The composition evokes a sense of exploration and travel, highlighting both the hardships and dreams associated with emigration. It symbolizes the American Dream that attracted many Europeans during this time period. The engraving beautifully portrays the German culture intertwined with themes of migration and hope for a brighter future. It serves as a poignant reminder of historical European migration patterns to North America.
