EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic CYRUS GATES FARMSTEAD, located in Maine, New York. Built in 1851, this remarkable home belonged to Cyrus Gates, a renowned cartographer and abolitionist. The architecture of the farmstead reflects the charm and character of its time, with its sturdy exterior standing tall against the harsh winter landscape. As we gaze upon this image captured in 1963, we are transported back to a bygone era when snow-covered trees adorned the rural North. It is believed that this very farmstead served as a crucial station on the Underground Railroad during those tumultuous times of slavery. The photograph evokes a sense of tranquility despite the cold weather surrounding it. We can almost imagine warm hearths crackling inside as brave souls sought refuge within these walls. This snapshot serves as an enduring testament to both courage and resilience. Displayed proudly by The Granger Collection's Art on Demand platform, this print not only captures architectural beauty but also preserves an important piece of history. Let us remember Cyrus Gates for his invaluable contributions to cartography and his unwavering dedication to abolishing slavery.
