This American lithograph, created in 1855, transports us back to a time when winter brought joy and excitement to the city. The scene depicts a vibrant street filled with people enjoying the snowy landscape on their sleds. The lithograph showcases an array of activities taking place amidst the snow-covered streets. Men and women can be seen bundled up warmly as they glide through the snow on their sleds, laughter and merriment filling the air. The energy is palpable as families and friends come together to revel in this exhilarating mode of transportation. This artwork captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects how recreation was intertwined with everyday life during this era.
