EDITORS COMMENTS
This mezzotint print titled "PURITANS GOING TO CHURCH" transports us back to the 17th century in colonial America. The artwork, created by George Henry Boughton, beautifully captures a scene from New England's harsh winter. As snow blankets the ground and cold winds blow, a Puritan couple makes their way towards the church. Dressed in traditional Puritan clothing, the husband and wife brave the elements with determination etched on their faces. The man carries a gun as a symbol of protection in this new world settlement. Their aprons serve as reminders of their domestic roles within their community. The image provides us with a glimpse into the daily life of early American colonists who sought religious freedom and established communities based on strict moral codes. Going to church was an essential part of their lives, providing solace and spiritual guidance amidst challenging circumstances. Boughton's masterful use of mezzotint technique adds depth and texture to this atmospheric piece. The contrast between light and shadow creates an evocative mood that draws viewers into this historical moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the resilience and faith that characterized these early settlers' lives. It serves as a poignant reminder of our nation's roots and pays homage to those who paved the way for future generations in building what would become modern-day America.
