The scene unfolds outside a bustling market place, where a group of hardworking farmers are diligently preparing their goods for sale. In this picturesque setting, we see an array of activities taking place. A family stands proudly beside their loaded wagon, filled to the brim with fresh produce and handmade goods. The farmer's horse patiently waits as they make final adjustments before embarking on their journey to the market. The lithograph beautifully captures the spirit of community and cooperation as men, women, and children work together harmoniously. Women can be seen carefully arranging baskets while men load carts with sacks of grain. It is evident that every member contributes to the success of this endeavor. Nathaniel Currier's attention to detail brings this scene to life; from the intricate patterns on clothing to the expressions on each face, he masterfully portrays both individuality and unity within this farming community. "PREPARING FOR MARKET (C&I)" serves as a timeless reminder of our agrarian past—a tribute to those who dedicated themselves tirelessly to sustain their families and communities through agriculture. This lithograph not only celebrates rural life but also highlights its significance in shaping our nation's history.
