EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, titled "FAMILY GATHERING, c1872" captures a beautiful moment of togetherness and joy within an African American family. The scene is set in the late 19th century, where an African American man skillfully plays the fiddle while his family dances around him. This artwork was created by Duval & Hunter after Auguste Dircks' painting "Dancing to the Fiddle". The image showcases a sense of unity and celebration as multiple generations come together in their home. The elderly grandmother sits by the hearth, her face beaming with happiness as she watches her loved ones enjoy themselves. The father stands proudly next to his wife, both fully immersed in the music and dance. Children can be seen joining in on the festivities, their youthful energy adding vibrancy to this heartwarming gathering. An infant rests peacefully in its mother's arms nearby, symbolizing hope for future generations. The setting itself exudes warmth and comfort; a fireplace mantle adorned with trinkets serves as a backdrop for this intimate family affair. It is evident that music has brought them all closer together within these walls. This print from Granger Art on Demand reminds us of the power of music and kinship to create moments of pure joy and connection. It serves as a testament to resilience during challenging times and celebrates African American culture within America's rich history.
