EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century lithograph, titled "Pleasures of Winter, 1855," showcases a charming scene of American country life during the winter season. Published by the renowned lithographer Nathaniel Currier, this horizontal color print depicts a horse-drawn carriage filled with cheerful people of various ages, bundled up against the cold weather. The carriage is accompanied by a sleigh and a sled, suggesting that the group has come out to enjoy a day of winter recreation. The old man in the foreground, dressed in a suit and hat, gazes out at the snowy landscape with a contented expression. His relatives, dressed in warm attire and clothing, share a moment of joy and camaraderie. Horses and carriages are a common sight in this scene, adding to the sense of tranquility and simplicity of rural life. The intricate details of the engraving, with its delicate snowflakes and textured clothing, transport us back to a time when the pleasures of winter were savored and celebrated. This beautiful lithograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of American country life and the simple joys of spending time with loved ones during the winter months.
