EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating snapshot of rural life in 19th century America. This vivid colour lithograph by Currier & Ives takes us back to a time when agriculture was the backbone of society. The scene depicts a bustling farmyard, filled with an array of produce and livestock. In the foreground, we see a young child diligently tending to wicker baskets overflowing with carrots, potatoes, and vegetables freshly harvested from the fertile soil. Nearby, chickens peck at scattered grains while chicks scurry about playfully. A proud turkey struts amidst the commotion as ducks swim gracefully in a nearby pond. The heart of this idyllic farmstead lies in its horses and cart; patiently waiting for their load to be loaded onto it before embarking on their journey to market. The rustic farmhouse stands proudly in the background - a symbol of hard work and self-sufficiency. This historic lithograph offers us a glimpse into an era where self-reliance was paramount and communities thrived on locally grown food. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable historical document that captures the essence of North American agricultural heritage. With its vibrant colours and meticulous attention to detail, "Preparing For Market" transports us back in time – reminding us of our roots while celebrating the beauty found within everyday life on the farm.
