EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "HSET2A-00126" takes us back in time to the 1600s, during the early colonization of New England. The hand-colored woodcut, based on a 19th-century illustration by E. A. Abbey, depicts a significant moment in American history. In this scene, we see a male drummer dressed in traditional colonial attire walking along a path. His purpose is clear - he is calling the early New England colonists to church service through his rhythmic beats on the drum. As he strolls forward with determination and purpose, an entire family follows him closely. The composition beautifully captures not only the drummer's role as a signal for religious gatherings but also highlights various aspects of life during that era. A couple walks side by side while their young daughter trails behind them. The vintage setting transports us to Plymouth Colony or perhaps Massachusetts Bay Colony where religion played an essential role in daily life. This image serves as a reminder of our rich history and how religion shaped communities in North America's early days. It represents unity and devotion as families come together to worship and strengthen their faith. With its historical significance and artistic charm, this print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon our roots as well as appreciate the artistry of EA Abbey's illustration capturing this pivotal moment from centuries ago.
