EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment frozen in time, transporting us back to colonial America in 1766. The scene depicts a group of dedicated colonists, members of the militia, diligently preparing for an eagerly anticipated barbecue. In this line engraving after Felix O. C. Darley's artwork from the 19th century, we witness the meticulousness and camaraderie that defined these early American settlers. With their attention focused on every detail, they ensure that no aspect is overlooked. The atmosphere is alive with anticipation as smoke billows from an open fire pit where succulent meats are being slowly cooked to perfection. The aroma tantalizes our senses even through this visual medium. Amongst them stands a proud militiaman overseeing the preparations while others engage in lively conversations or tend to various tasks such as butchering a bull - symbolizing both sustenance and celebration. This image serves as a reminder of the resilience and resourcefulness exhibited by those who laid down the foundations of modern-day America. It offers us insight into their daily lives and traditions; how they came together not only for defense but also to celebrate moments of unity and joy. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Granger Collection's archives, we are transported back centuries ago – witnessing firsthand how these early colonists embraced community spirit amidst challenging times.
