EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a snapshot of daily life in America during the late 19th century. Titled "THANKSGIVING, 1882. Buying turkeys" this wood engraving showcases a bustling scene outside a rustic farm house. In the foreground, we see a group of men and women gathered around a vendor's cart filled with plump turkeys. A young girl, presumably the farmer's daughter, stands nearby observing the transaction with curiosity. The winter snow blankets the ground, adding to the picturesque setting. The image beautifully portrays an autumn day as people go about their chores and preparations for Thanksgiving festivities. The hardworking farmers take time out from their laborious tasks to select the perfect turkey for their celebratory feast. This wood engraving offers us a glimpse into rural American life at that time - where community spirit thrived and gratitude was expressed through shared meals on special occasions like Thanksgiving. It reminds us of simpler times when families relied on one another and nature's bounty to sustain themselves. As we admire this historical print by The Granger Collection, it serves as a reminder of our roots and traditions that have shaped who we are today. It is an homage to those who worked tirelessly to provide for their loved ones while cherishing moments of joy amidst challenging circumstances.
